Survey: 96% of Poles would still choose foreign investment in Germany

According to a recent report by the German Chamber of Industry and Commerce (AHK), there are over 1,700 commercial companies with Polish capital operating in Germany. As many as 79 percent of those surveyed believe the German economy is either good or very good. Moreover, 96 percent of Polish businesspeople say that if they were to choose the location of foreign investment once again, they would still opt for Germany. However, Polish CEOs praised Germany’s infrastructure quality, and the predictability of economic policy, as well as the attitude of the public administration, including tax institutions. They also point to honesty and payment discipline among business partners, and qualified personnel. Polish companies complain about high taxes and labour costs, as well as excessive bureaucracy.
