Polish firms getting more attractive for foreign ones

More foreign companies approached business information agencies to inquire about Polish firms in 2014, Puls Biznesu daily reported. Due to the Ukrainian crisis, around 18 percent year-on year more companies asked about financial standing of Polish entities and risks of potential cooperation, according to Bisnode. Same growth was noted by InfoCredit. When it comes to Coface, the increase reached even 44 percent. "A higher interest of foreign companies is a result of proactivity of Polish firms which are more bold in terms of the external markets," Jerzy Wonka, Business Development Manager of InfoCredit said. Firms from such countries as the UK, the US, Spain, the Netherlands, Italy and France were the most active. There were also a lot of inquires from Japanese, Indian and Korean companies, Bisnode informed.
