Polish banking sector expansion and competition

Overview

PKO Bank Polski is pursuing an international expansion strategy focused on the corporate sector. Building on its presence in Germany, the Czech Republic, and Slovakia, the bank has expanded into Romania and opened representative offices in Sweden, Austria, and Lithuania. The bank intends to reach thirteen foreign branches or offices within three years, with plans to launch new branches in France, Spain, Italy, and the Netherlands, while also evaluating the Hungarian market.

This strategy aims to support Polish corporate clients operating across borders and to establish relationships with local businesses in these new markets.

In the domestic market, PKO BP is also engaging in customer acquisition through promotional offers. The bank is providing cash-based incentives for new customers through December 31, 2026, which include card payment refunds, account diligence bonuses, and interest rate incentives on savings accounts.
