Poland's PKO BP has significantly changed its forecast for the Polish economy in the light of the new post-election realities. 

The bank now forecasts that the economy may grow as much as 4% in 2024, which would make it a "good year". This change is mainly due to the stimulus of the long-awaited EU funds, now expected to first arrive in April 2024. 

"Though winter only begins on the 21st December in a couple of days, spring can already be detected in the economy. We have revised our forecasts - published in #KwartalnikEkonomiczny - to predict significant growth"
