Poland - Factors to Watch January 16

WARSAW, Jan 16 (Reuters) - The following are significant news stories, press reports and events on Friday. ALL TIMES GMT (Poland: GMT + 1 hour):

INTEREST RATES

Poland still has some room for monetary easing, and the next decision to cut interest rates could come as early as February or March, central bank governor Adam Glapinski said on Thursday, adding that the main rate may ultimately fall to 3.5%.

Poland may return to interest rate cuts next month with a quarter-point reduction as prospects for continued low inflation improve, Polish central banker Ludwik Kotecki told Bloomberg News in an interview published on Friday.

GREENLAND

Poland will not send soldiers to Greenland, Prime Minister Donald Tusk said on Thursday, adding an attack by one NATO country on the territory of another would be "the end of the world as we know it".

FOREIGN INVESTMENTS

In 2025, the value of foreign direct investments in Poland exceeded 4 billion euros ($4.64 billion), surpassing the previous record 3.7 billion euro level in 2024, Puls Biznesu daily reported, citing data from the Polish Investment and Trade Agency (PAIH).

Reuters has not verified stories reported by Polish media and does not vouch for their accuracy.
