Poland: Economic growth competiveness index

The Growth Competitiveness Index (GCI), aims to quantify the quality of the macroeconomic environment, the state of a country’s public institutions, and its level of technological readiness.

Higher competitiveness scores are more desirable:

• Very High – 5.51 to 7
• High – 4.51 to 5.50
• Moderate – 3.51 to 4.50
• Low - 3.01 to 3.50
• Very Low – 0 to 3.00

Poland does not publish official house price statistics. The Central Statistical Office has a ‘house price’ index which is really a construction cost index. REAS Konsulting produces house price figures, but they are not publicly available. There are quite good mortgage interest rate statistics on the Central Bank web site

Poland’s general economics data are of poor quality. The GDP statistics available on the Central Statistical Office site tend to be old. However good general statistics in pdf format are available on the back pages of Macroscope, a publication of Bank Zachodni WBK.
