The Japan Post Holdings KK ( Jap. 日本郵政株式会社 , Japan Post Holdings Kabushiki Kaisha , English. Japan Post Holdings Co., Ltd. ) is a Japanese holding company for the four companies in 2007 from the Japan Post , the successor to the Japanese government post, have arisen.

The holding company has 3,098 employees, but is responsible for around 215,000 employees in the entire scope of consolidation , including 195,000 at Post, 13,000 at Postbank and 7,000 at insurance.

The JP Group was created in 2006 in preparation for the transformation of the public postal service into a private company. On October 1, 2007, the Japan Post was transferred to the four divisions of the JP Group:

  • the mail delivery services to the Japan Post Service ( 郵 便 事業 株式会社 , Yūbin Jigyō KK ),
  • the post offices to the Japan Post Network ( 郵 便 局 株式会社 , Yūbin Kyoku KK ),
  • Postbank to Japan Post Bank ( 株式会社 ゆ う ち ょ 銀行 KK Yūcho Ginkō ) and
  • Post's life insurance to Japan Post Insurance ( 株式会社 か ん ぽ 生命 保 険 KK Kampo Seimei Hoken ).

The positioning of the four areas as independent companies and the transfer to private ownership should be completed after ten years. However, the lower house of the national parliament decided - since it is a joint draft of the three largest parties, the approval of the upper house is certain - in April 2012 after several years of negotiations, especially at the insistence of the New People's Party, which has been in power since 2009, a reform of the already 2009 weakened Post Privatization Act: The new law no longer sets a time limit for privatization, the companies for delivery services and post offices are to be merged again and the post offices are obliged to continue to offer post, banking and insurance services nationwide. In addition, a large part of the privatization proceeds will be used for the reconstruction after the Tōhoku earthquake in 2011 .

On October 1, 2012, Japan Post Service ( 郵 便 事業 株式会社 , Yūbin Jigyō KK ) and Japan Post Network ( 郵 便 局 株式会社 , Yūbin Kyoku KK ) joined forces to form Japan Post Co., Ltd. ( 日本 郵 便 株式会社 , Nippon Yū-bin KK ) together.

In 2015, Nippon Yūsei took over the Australian Toll Holdings for 4.5 billion euros .

At the beginning of November 2015, Japan Post Holdings and its subsidiaries Postbank and Postversicherung went public in the largest IPO of the year.
