Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the submitted paper is to assess changes in the level and structure of foreign investments in Poland during the years 2008–2013, so in the period of destabilization of the business environment, which was a consequence of the global financial crisis. The analysis, based on National Bank of Poland’s data showed that investment attractiveness of Poland has not been significantly reduced; however, the transfer of capital and profits has been observed. It can be concluded that in times of crisis, foreign investors prefer the stability of the financial system of the country in which the parent companies are residing to the financial system’s safety of the country that hosts subsidiary companies.
