Abstract: In 2016, the Polish economy has been marked by a decline in GDP growth of 1.1 percentage points compared to 2015, due mainly to a massive decline in gross fixed capital formation. Domestic demand was the main driver of growth, supported by higher household incomes in the year 2016. The strong increase in domestic demand, coupled with the revival in investment will lead to a more robust economic growth in 2017, followed by a slight moderation of pace in 2018. The short-term growth prospects will remain favourable, apart from some risks for investment decisions, which could be affected by uncertainties related to the impact of economic policies. Attracting EU funds will help support public investment in the coming years, but fiscal space will be needed to keep European projects co-funded.
