Summary/Abstract: In the last few years, the number of failing companies has been constantly increasing. Therefore, an obvious question arises: are those bankruptcies predictable? The article proves that there is a very effective method of failure prediction, namely the discriminant analysis. The authors constructed a model for the Polish economy. It is based on current financial data (years 1999-2002) and has very high accuracy of 96%.
