"Destroys an institution that is very much needed in our society"

The ongoing dispute regarding the management of the National Bank of Poland involves President Adam Glapiński facing potential charges before the Constitutional Tribunal. Concerns have been raised about the bank's governance, particularly if the current vice-president's term is not extended, risking a breach of legal requirements for board membership. Professor Joanna Tyrowicz criticized Glapiński for undermining the institution's importance and highlighted allegations against him, including misleading the finance minister and unauthorized interventions. Recent appointments to the bank's board have also sparked controversy, as they require the Prime Minister's countersignature. Current interest rates remain unchanged despite rising inflation pressures, with Tyrowicz advocating for higher rates given Poland's strong economic conditions.
