A Medium-Term Forecast for Poland’s Economic Growth: Sustained Recovery

The authors offer a medium-term projection for Poland’s economic growth in 2007-2011. The forecast was prepared with the use of an annual macroeconomic model developed at the Łódź University Faculty of Econometric Models and Forecasts.
