Poland Infrastructure Report Q2 2015 - New Market Study Published

BMI has upgraded its outlook for 2014 as market data shows a stronger recovery, in particular from the residential and transport sector s . A n ew tranche of EU funding and a number of approved road and rail projects add further upside to our forecast. As such, we expect annual average growth of 5.5% between 2015 and 2018.

Poland's construction sector experienced a 9% contraction in 2013, in line with our estimate for a 10% contraction, and wiping PLN11.8bn off the total industry value, while more than 300 companies in the industry faced bankruptcy - including some of the country's largest builders. 2014 saw strong signs of recovery with residential construction up 17% in the first 10 months and six new road contracts awarded in H214. As a result, transport sector growth is expected to average 4.1% over 2015-2018.

Sentiment appears to be recovering, providing momentum for growth in 2015. This will be driven by government housing policies, as well as the EU 2014-2020 Multiannual Financial Framework. Poland will once again be the biggest beneficiary of EU funding and much of this will be targeted at infrastructure - to bring Poland's quality of infrastructure in line with developed EU countries, as well as better integrate Central and Eastern Europe.
