As the Warsaw Stock Exchange’s blue chips continue to perform poorly in the second half of the year, the SME sector could help stimulate Poland’s GDP growth in 2015, according to Ryszard Rusak, the investment director at Union Investment TFI. “The healthy performance of Warsaw’s stock market, compared to some of the other emerging markets, may help revive Poland’s slowing economy […] as the market continues its boom for the fifth consecutive year,” Rusak says. While it has suffered from worsening global sentiments, Poland’s SME sector is expected to rebound next year, Rusak is predicting. “Improving investor sentiment, especially in Germany, will push up profits for Poland’s private sector, but it’s small and medium-sized businesses that might turn out to be the best investment in H2 2015,” he adds.
