Future (Economy) Ready Country Poland

Shifting our focus to Poland, a prominent example of the aspect of "Profit" within the Triple Bottom Line, the country has showcased remarkable economic growth while upholding social and environmental responsibility. Located in Central Europe, with a rich history marked by various challenges like periods of occupation, including during World War II, Poland has exhibited resilience and evolved into a diverse and developed economy over the centuries. Despite these trials, Poland has positioned itself as one of the fastest-growing economies within the EU.

POLAND BY ITS GLANCE

Since its transition from a different political system, Poland has experienced consistent GDP growth, demonstrating resilience during times of economic difficulty. During the global financial crisis of 2008, Poland impressively avoided a recession, standing out as the sole EU country to achieve this feat. While other European nations struggled with economic downturns, Poland's GDP actually grew by 1.7% in 2009, as reported by Eurostat. Even during the challenging year of 2020, impacted by significant global events like COVID-19, Poland managed to limit its GDP contraction to just 3.5%. In comparison, another European country faced a staggering 9.9% contraction during the same period. Such impressive economic performance has positioned Poland as a country recognized as a notable player in the global economy of tomorrow.

WHAT DRIVES POLAND TO THIS ACHIEVEMENT?

Poland's success in navigating economic challenges has been bolstered by its adept fiscal management, especially in the face of crises, which allowed the Polish government to sustain employment and prevent bankruptcies during the pandemic. The country's medium-term budget strategy prioritizes reducing the general government deficit to below 3% of GDP. In adherence to its fiscal framework, Poland maintains a public debt rule anchored in the Constitution, which limits gross debt to 60% of GDP. Additionally, Poland actively encourages entrepreneurship and investment by establishing Special Economic Zones (SEZ) in less developed regions, offering tax exemptions and other incentives for accelerated growth. Poland's success in attracting domestic and foreign investments stems from its highly skilled workforce, especially in IT. The nation's strong education system and vibrant tech sector reinforce its position as a prime destination in Europe. This fertile environment has positioned Poland as a hub for startups, magnetizing entrepreneurs and investors globally.

Poland's prudent financial management has been essential in navigating global economic challenges, ensuring the well-being of its citizens, and fostering a favorable business environment. Emphasizing long-term gains and creating lasting positive impacts on its inhabitants, Poland's approach to being future-ready sets a GREAT standard for balanced and sustainable development to learn from.
