35% of Poles save money with a set plan - ZBP

Only 35 percent of Poles save their money according to a predetermined plan, and 60 percent save money in an irregular way, according to the study of the Polish Bank Association (ZBP). More than half of bankers emphasize that their clients save for a rainy day, and one in four does not have a goal at all. Every fifth Pole does not think about saving for a longer period than half a year.

Over 40 percent of Poles declare that they prefer spending rather than saving. Over 40 percent of respondents indicate that their clients take a cash loan to buy larger consumer goods, eg a car or household appliances. Only 15 percent of customers decide to make a commitment to top up the budget.
