More private equity funds will likely enter the Polish market this year, the daily Puls Biznesu reports. Despite political unrest in neighboring countries, global investors continue to perceive Poland as one of the most stable markets at the moment. The newspaper points out that Poland’s private equity market has benefited from recent riots in Turkey, and analysts expect that the country could also benefit from the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. “When private equity is looking to attract potential investors to put their money into a new fund, it needs to provide in-depth knowledge on the current political environment in the region,” says Piotr Samojlink of Vienna Capital Partners. He adds that while they’ve been targeting Turkey and the former Yugoslavia region for a long time, global investors are currently shifting their focus to the Polish market. “It’s Poland where you can seal the biggest transactions at the moment, as the country’s market has already entered the path of growth, enjoying stable political background,” Samojlink says.
