Over the past decade, Poland has significantly reduced external imbalances while improving the structure of capital flows with the world. This is reflected in the increase of foreign direct investments, which strengthens the country’s financial security. The European Commission has positively assessed these improvements in its 2025 Alert Mechanism Report.
As of 2023, Poland’s net international investment position (MPI) was -32.6% of GDP, meaning it remains a net debtor. However, Poland has steadily improved, with foreign assets growing faster than liabilities. This shift is due to reduced reliance on foreign debt, stronger exports, and improved financial balance. Poland now meets EU stability criteria and is on track to further strengthen its international financial standing.
