- I signed the law increasing taxes for banks. It cannot be that the tax burden is borne by the average citizen or small businesses, while foreign corporations or large financial institutions are making record profits - said President Karol Nawrocki in a recording published by the Chancellery of the President.

This is one of 11 laws signed by the President today.

As Nawrocki explained: - In recent years, banks have achieved above-average profits. I therefore considered it reasonable to direct a larger part of these profits towards the state, especially in view of growing needs, including those related to financing the security of the Republic and the expansion of our Armed Forces.
