New Generation Financial Center
For over 30 years, Poland has been developing its financial center, crucial for building a modern and dynamic economy. Financial institutions provide innovative and secure services to millions of customers and finance the growth of entrepreneurs.
The Polish financial center represents hundreds of thousands of jobs, cybersecurity centers, research and development hubs, and hundreds of innovative fintechs. From being very local, the Polish financial center is increasingly becoming a part of the global financial network, serving customers not only along the Vistula River but around the world.
The changing geopolitical landscape compels us to set new goals that reflect Poland’s growing ambitions, including in the financial sector. The next-generation financial center will not only be one of the key drivers of the national economy’s development but also a stimulator for enhancing its competitiveness, innovation, and internationalization.
