Market insight: DP World's Kenya deal – a hornet's nest?

TNT Post UK is taking Royal Mail to court, claiming that the majority of its business should not be benefiting from a 20% VAT exemption. Royal Mail will publish its IPO prospectus in the next few weeks – which is likely to list the court case as a risk to the privatisation.

We expect a favourable decision to come out of this process and expect that to be towards the end of 2015 and early 2016.”
