Quick Glance: Poland's Strategy for EU Recovery Grants and Law Change to Boost Investments
- With a little over two years left to spend European Union recovery money, Poland is firmly focusing on maximizing the smaller grants portion of the program, while viewing cheap loans as a secondary component.
- Poland is expected to receive 6 billion euros from recovery funds on Monday, and Prime Minister Donald Tusk's government is revising the national reconstruction plan to list projects and reforms aimed for approval by Brussels this month.
- To expedite investments, the Polish government is also working on amending existing laws to avoid converting all incoming euro-denominated funds into Polish zlotys, with a decision expected either this month or next.
- However, some economists caution that investor optimism regarding the inflow of funds may be excessive, especially with the upcoming Polish presidential elections next year potentially impacting the implementation of necessary reforms to ensure the continuous flow of funds.

notesfrompoland.com/2024/03/26/polish-ruling-coalition-moves-to-put-central-bank-governor-on-trial/
Quick Glance: Motion to Bring Polish Central Bank Chief Before Tribunal
- Polish lawmakers will submit a motion to bring the central bank chief before the State Tribunal, as part of a broader effort by the government to hold accountable those accused of wrongdoing.
- Governor Adam Glapinski is accused of lacking independence from the previous government, breaking constitutional rules, and misleading the finance ministry about the bank's financial results. The process to remove Glapinski could be lengthy, as the motion must be investigated by a parliamentary commission before going to a full chamber vote.
- Christine Lagarde, head of the European Central Bank, warned Glapinski in a letter that any such move could be referred to the EU's top court as it might impact the central bank's independence.
- Glapinski defends his work, emphasizing that quantitative easing was crucial to save the largest economy in the east of the European Union during the pandemic. Investigations could start in April, after an Easter break, according to deputy head of the commission, Dariusz Jonski.
