Polish GDP Growth Slows in Q2, But 2026 Target Remains Achievable
Polish retail sales and construction output disappointed, causing Q2 GDP growth to fall below the 3.5% YoY rate seen in Q1. However, strong investment may still support a 3.4% growth rate by 2026.
Poland's economic activity weakened further in the second quarter, with retail sales and construction output coming in below expectations. As a result, GDP growth for Q2 is set to drop below the 3.5% year-on-year pace recorded in Q1.
Despite the slowdown in consumption, robust investment activity is expected to help maintain a 3.4% growth trajectory through 2026, according to the source. The data point to a mixed outlook with near-term softness but medium-term resilience.
