Leasing sector records growth

Polish leasing companies recorded a 16.3 increase in the value of new contracts signed in the first half of the year, according to a press release from the Polish Leasing Association (which comprises 90 percent of the sector). During this period, Polish firms financed assets worth nearly PLN 49.8 billion in total, recording the highest result ever. "In the next few years, we predict a rise in the sector and we are hoping for more investment, in particular those financed via leasing," Wojciech Rybak, president of the executive committee at the Polish Leasing Association said.
