Polish floor is close to be more mature than Greek one. FTSE Group, an organization that creates stock indexes, has announced annual country classification results. According to this, Poland, as only country in region has been moved from emerging market group to observational list, from it can be promoted to developed countries group. Similar promotion lies ahead Taiwan. From developed countries’ list can fall the Greece. Ukraine was located in frontier category.
Possible advancement is the result of rapid development of capital market in recent years. In 2007 FTSE moved the WSE to advanced emerging markets group, which it occupies with Hungary and Czech Rep. Strong competition between brokers, developed derivative market and its decent capitalization, allow the advancement to higher group (with USA and Germany).
The only objections were lack of collective accounts which could be used by foreign institution for clearings and poor loan bond market.
“We are becoming to be an entity that is identified as arranging market for other countries from the region and EU neighbors. FTSE has seen it” Ludwik Sobolewski, WSE president said. The regrouping is especially important for foreign investment funds, where often different people are responsible for emerging markets and for developed ones. Some commentators think that Poland can even lose on that advance.

The Polish delegation included representatives of the Polska Agencja Inwestycji i Handlu (PAIH), led by the President of the Agency, Andrzej Dycha.
