21:27
The European Investment Bank (EIB) Group supported investments in Poland with a record amount of €6.5 billion in 2021, including nearly €5.7 billion from the European Investment Bank and €805 million from the European Investment Fund, said EIB Vice-President Teresa Czerwińska.
"More than 7 out of 10 entrepreneurs in the EU indicate that uncertainty is the key factor that causes investment decisions to be postponed. In Poland, almost 9 out of 10 entrepreneurs declare that uncertainty is the key factor that postpones investment decisions. For an investment facility to function smoothly, mechanisms for risk sharing, the provision of long-term competitive financing and investment advice support are needed. And this is our bank's mission – long-term, competitive financing, especially bearing in mind the barriers to acquiring such capital by small and medium-sized enterprises," Czerwińska said during the Investments as an Accelerator of Change conference.
