Dilemmas of Polish foreign trade policy
Abstract
During recent transformations of Polish economy the foreign trade is supposed to answer
a purpose of acting in favour of acceleration and lowering the costs of development. The diagnosis
of the situation indicates a series of disquieting phenomenons such as disbalancing of commercial
balance, lowering in export profitability, unfavourable wares structure in foreign exchange and
high indebtedness abroad. Hence the tasks for Polish foreign trade policy must focus on the need
of rising the competitiveness of export and diminishing import share in the volume of trade. The above task is feasible within the framework of strategy aimed at accelerated development of export
and mild reduction of import.
In the case of protection policy the point is to determine the scope of the protection and to
make a choice of protective means for home market. Lack of perfection in functioning of market
mechanisms in present Polish economy justifies today mild kind of protection policy with additionally
some rigour builtin the whole of the system. Less efficiency in traditional protective means
(custom duties, rates of exchange) suggests appealing to other more selective means (anti-dumping
and anti-subventionning procedures, agreements and standards relating to goods quality as
well as restructural clause).
As far as rates of exchange policy is concerned the basic dilemma is the choice of the kind of
the rate. Functional reorientation of the rate of exchange is justified because of disbalanced commercial
balance: the range of oscillation should be enlarged and steady monthly devaluation -
eliminated; the result should be more importance of reaction on external balance.
Main conclusion is the constatation of the need for elaboration of long-term policy in Polish
foreign trade - including clearly defined tasks and means to realize them. This shall permit to get
optimal the process of solving the dilemmas emerging with more intensity during transformation
of the economy.
