Polityka inwestycyjna wybranych banków spółdzielczych zrzeszonych w SGB w latach 2019–2021
Investment policy of selected SGB-affiliated cooperative banks in 2019–2021

Summary/Abstract: The subject of the study was the structure of the investment portfolio in 28 cooperative banks affiliated with the Cooperative Banking Group (SGB) in 2019–2021. During the period, performance pressures caused by a decline in interest income prompted banks, among other things, to optimize profits by ad- justing the composition of the investment portfolio to the surrounding reality. During the research pe- riod, 93% of the banks analyzed saw their appetite for investment risk increase, and as a consequence, the structure of their investment portfolio changed significantly. The most important conclusion of the study is that in 18% of the surveyed entities the investment policy was implemented inconsistently with the bank’s charter, which should be considered in legal and regulatory, but also ethical terms.
