#SFV2022 Talk with Leaders: Paweł Chorąży, Polish Development Bank, Poland

Socially orientated enterprises in Poland face difficulty in sourcing traditional credit. To bridge this finance gap and recognise the added value to society of these organisations, Polish authorities have leveraged resources from the European Social Fund (ESF) to launch financial instruments for social economy organisations. Here we explore achievements to date and future perspectives of the Polish National Promotional Bank (Bank Gospodarstwa Krajowego) in supporting the social economy.

This video was recorded during the virtual conference Social Finance Vibe 2022: Towards a Resilient Future, organized by Microfinance Centre on November 9-10.
