Polish President Bronisław Komorowski arrived at the Davos World Economic Forum in Switzerland on Wednesday with the goal of promoting both Polish bonds and the Warsaw Stock Exchange.

“If we manage to increase trust towards Poland, I will consider the trip to be a success,” said President Komorowski. He added that with the crisis-ridden euro zone as a backdrop, Poland looks “appetizing” to investors, especially because of its fast-growing economy, reported Puls Biznesu.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel officially opened the event with strong words regarding the euro zone, saying the region currently lacks the necessary political structures to ensure the workability of the single currency.

Ms Merkel did, however, stress her determination to protect the common European currency, but at the same time brushed aside the possibility of increasing the crisis bailout fund, while also warning against an overburdening of the German economy.

“We guarantee the euro, but we do not want to promise something we can not keep,” she said.
