International Distributions Services PLC
Glance View
International Distributions Services PLC, often known as Royal Mail Group, has long served as a linchpin in the UK's communications and logistics sectors. Its roots trace back to the early 16th century, woven deeply into the fabric of British history. This legacy company operates primarily through two key divisions: Royal Mail and General Logistics Systems (GLS). Royal Mail focuses on delivering letters and parcels across the UK, maintaining a vast network of post offices and delivery services that reach millions of households daily. Meanwhile, GLS extends the company’s reach beyond Britain, offering parcel logistics services across Europe and North America. The company navigates the complexities of an increasingly digital world with a dual focus on traditional and modern approaches, transforming an iconic postal service into a diverse logistics powerhouse. Revenue streams for International Distributions Services PLC are multifaceted, stemming from traditional mail, parcels, and international logistics services. Domestically, the company earns by fulfilling its universal service obligation, ensuring delivery of letters and parcels to every UK address. However, as digital communication reduces the demand for traditional mail, the parcel delivery business has become increasingly crucial. This shift is propelled by the burgeoning e-commerce sector, which boosts demand for effective and reliable parcel logistics. Internationally, GLS contributes significant revenue by capitalizing on cross-border e-commerce and trade flows across its international networks. Thus, the company balances the heritage of traditional mail with innovative logistic strategies, striving to remain competitive in a rapidly changing market.
What is Insider Trading?
Insider trading refers to the buying or selling of a company’s stock by individuals with access to non-public, material information about the company.
While legal insider trading occurs when insiders follow disclosure rules, illegal insider trading involves trading based on confidential information and is prohibited by law.
Why is Insider Trading Important?
It isn't a coincidence that corporate executives seem to always buy at the right times. After all, they have access to every bit of company information you could ever want.
However, the fact that company executives have unique insights doesn't mean that individual investors are always left in the dark. Insider trading data is out there for all who want to use it.
Insiders might sell their shares for any number of reasons, but they buy them for only one: they think the price will rise.
