- The market capitalization of state-controlled companies on the Warsaw Stock Exchange has doubled to 480.7 billion zlotys under Donald Tusk's government.
- This growth significantly outpaced the overall market performance during the same 2.5-year period.
- While most state firms saw gains, not all have experienced similar value increases.
The total value of shares in companies controlled by the Polish State Treasury has surged by 100% during Donald Tusk's 2.5-year government, reaching 480.7 billion zlotys. This significant increase, from an initial 240.6 billion zlotys, demonstrates a growth rate substantially higher than that of the broader stock market.
This analysis, building on previous reports from "Rzeczpospolita" and "Parkiet" that tracked state-controlled companies after two years of the current coalition's governance, now updates the figures after an additional six months. The data highlights which state-owned enterprises have led this impressive growth and how the ranking of the most valuable entities has shifted.
Despite the overall positive trend, the article notes that not all state-owned companies have benefited equally from this period of market expansion. Some firms have seen their value increase more dramatically than others, indicating varied performance within the portfolio of state-controlled assets.
