  Postgirot Bank - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Postgirot, was developed by Posten, the Swedish postal service, and for a long time it was wholly separate from the banking system which made transfers between the two systems difficult.
The deregulation of postal services in Sweden prompted a sale of Postgirot, and initially there were plans to merge the two clearing systems, but it was halted due to objections from the Swedish Competition Authority.
Instead Postgirot applied for a banking license and became a member of Bankgirot in 2002, enabling it to take deposits and make transactions with other banks.

 NORDBANKEN/POSTGIROT(Merger) - COMP/M.256 [2001] ECComm 105 (8 November 2001)
Postgirot is the only bank in Sweden that has its own internal giro system mainly because state authorities were under an obligation until 1994 to use Postgirot for their in- and outgoing payments.
As a result Postgirot account holders may attribute a Bankgiro number to their Postgirot account and payments may be made directly from a Postgirot account to a Bankgiro number.
Although Postgirot is technically an internal account transfer service (whereas Bankgirot acts as an interface between its member banks‘; internal accounts), the fact that more than 90% of Swedish corporates have an account in Postgirot enables it to provide essentially the same services as Bankgirot for the majority of transactions in Sweden.
