The pan-European trend of restricting banks’ operations with non-resident clients has also affected the Polish banking sector. These new developments are well known to entrepreneurs conducting business in the Baltic countries (Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia), the Czech Republic, and many other European countries. In these jurisdictions, not only do insurmountable difficulties arise when opening a corporate account, but there are also cases of account blocking for long-established and successfully operating companies whose beneficiary is a non-resident.<\/p>
