Government services want access to Poles' bank accounts

Polish government is working on a new tool to collect information about Poles' bank accounts. The data is to be sent to the tax office, CBA, Internal Security Agency, and even the Border Guard and the Military Police.
According to the Chancellery of the Prime Minister in the list of legislative and program works of the government, the aim of the proposed legal act is to create the Financial Information System (SInF). It is to collect, process, and share information on open and closed accounts and on safe-deposit agreements. The indicated accounts include bank accounts, accounts in SKOK, payment accounts in other entities, securities accounts, omnibus accounts with cash accounts used to service them.
According to the authors of the draft, the changes will also make it easier to locate assets in connection with proceedings conducted by specific entities (services, courts, and other types of public authorities) while maintaining the currently applicable regulations specifying the procedure for such access.
In addition – as indicated – the changes will enable "proactive analysis", consisting of the analysis of wholesale data collected in the register in order to select the accounts that can be used for criminal activities.
