Leasing in Poland – privatization, financing and current problems
Abstract
Discusses leasing in Poland with a focus on leasing privatization arrangements and leasing finance, and analyses current major problems involved. On the one hand, leasing has been used in Poland as a means of privatizing the state‐owned enterprises and has been considered as one of the best ways to facilitate privatization. On the other hand, leasing as an alternative approach to financing is a small‐scale business, and the leasing market is underdeveloped. The current ten major problems facing the Polish leasing industry highlighted in this article are bound up with the transformation of the whole economy. Generally, leasing business in Poland faces relatively high risk. The solutions to the current problems are not easily found, and assistance from the West is urgently needed.
