Abstract

GEOGRAPHICAL DIRECTIONS OF THE POLISH INVESTMENTS ABROAD

Polish direct investment flows have been directed abroad since the 1990s. These flows were very small. Since 2005 they have increased rapidly, particularly to the European countries. Polish enterprises invest mainly in Luxembourg, Belgium, the Netherlands, Great Britain and in Germany. Besides Europe Polish investments are directed to the USA and to Central America to the tax paradises. Majority of them have financial and not productive capacity. Polish FDIs are involved in manufacturing, services, financial and insurance activities.
