Public debt is nowadays one of the most important financial and
economic problems that the whole world is struggling with. Acquir-
ing financial means by the state to cover expenses and meet needs
is a serious problem for the modern economy, and the actions taken
- in an indirect and direct way - are subject to burdens in the name
of the common good.
In Poland, the level of public finance debt has been a worrying
phenomenon for many years, if only because of its ever-growing
level. Each budget is constantly accompanied by a deficit, and what
is connected with it, a growing public debt. Another group of rulers
is trying to find a solution to the growing problem, but they still face
a dilemma: how to properly spread the burden of growing debt ser-
vicing costs?
The purpose of this paper is to analyze and assess the level of
public debt in Poland after the accession to the European Union, i.e.
since 2004, when Poland entered the European Union until the pres-
ent times, namely 2017.
The first part of the paper analyzes the limits of public debt as well as sanction and prudential procedures, while the second part
analyzes the level and dynamics of public debt in Poland in 2004-
2017 period.
