摘要
This article investigates the phenomenon of financial constraints in investment activities. Using a data set covering 2001-2011, we established that, despite the institutional changes and the financial system development, Polish firms remain financially constrained by the internally available funds. Additionally, we explored the impact of size and political connections on financial constraints. Unexpectedly we found that the financial constraints are not affected by either the size or the type nor the strength of political connections.
