Economists hope that corporate investments will substantially stimulate growth

According to economists, investments should involve double-digit growth figures if they are to substantially contribute to accelerating the economy. Half of the envisaged investments will be spent in Poland, while the remaining share will be, in majority, allocated to other CEE countries. A substantial share of funds will be spent on acquisitions, which are far less stimulating for GDP than greenfield investments. According to experts, an increase in the growth of the economy is preceded by the revival in the construction and machine building sectors. However, according to analysts, there is a group of companies which do not have to increase investments to meet the bullish situation in the market. Due to this, according to Wojciech Giller an analyst with DB Securities, investments of publisher Agora will not go up. "We believe that they will stand at a similar level to those in 2005. Following the bear market the company rather suffers from overcapacity rather than lack of resources," said Giller. (Parkiet, p. 5) M.M.
