The new product, service or process needs to be implemented and made available to users (OECD, Eurostat). Effective development of an ecosystem fostering innovation is dependent on numerous factors: friendliness of the regulatory en- vironment, availability of qualified workers, easiness of conducting business, quality of education, cooperation of science and industry, availability of financing, government incentives and availability and usage of modern technologies. A coexistence of these factors is usually found in highly developed countries. Hence innovation rankings are topped by Switzerland, the Netherlands, Sweden (Global Innovation Index 2018), Germany and the United States (The Global Competitiveness Report 2018) or Sweden and Denmark (European Innovation Scoreboard 2018). Innovations have been Poland’s Achilles heel for years. In 2017 research and development expenditures rose to PLN 20.6 billion (+14.6% in comparison to 2016, GUS); however, they still constitute just 1.03% of GDP, one of the lowest results among EU countries. Average expenditure on research and development in the EU ex- ceeds 2% of GDP. In Germany, government agencies and educa- tional institutions spend around EUR 100 billion on R&D per year, over 20 times more than Poland. Also, large global companies such as Samsung (over EUR 13 billion in 2017 according to 2017 Samsung Financial Report) outperform Poland in research and development expenditure. Polish companies ceased to base their competitiveness on low product price and started to build their position on international markets thanks to quality and design. To implement products that could be successful internationally, they must become pioneers, not followers. Instead of importing technologies, they should create them. They can achieve it by increasing their expenditures relat- ed to innovation. This should be encouraged by the government, which should follow the example of solutions implemented in other countries to form an innovation-friendly environment for business. An increase in innovativeness is a chance for Poland to avoid the middle income trap.

Also, Grupa Azoty Polyolefins, the SPV formed to implement the project, which is of key importance to the entire chemical industry, has signed a credit facility agreement with a syndicate of domestic and foreign financial institutions. The total project budget is estimated at over EUR 1.5bn. The construction phase is scheduled for completion in 2022. ‘Today marks the end of many months of work to raise funding for Polimery Police, one of the largest industrial projects currently under way in Poland and wider Europe. The project is in progress, with Hyundai, our equity partner and general contractor, having entered the construction site earlier this year. Polimery Police is important to us and to the entire economy. It will help us to strategically diversify our revenue sources and Poland to turn from a net importer to a net exporter of polypropylene,’ said Wojciech Wardacki, President of the Grupa Azoty S.A. Management Board. The press conference held in Police to announce the signing of the agreements was attended by Polish President Andrzej Duda and Minister of State Assets Jacek Sasin. ‘A mechanism was created to implement a project worth PLN 7bn. It really is an incredibly huge and cost- intensive project. But what makes it so cost-intensive is that it is a world-class state-of-the-art facility,’ noted President Andrzej Duda.

Auditor’s report and auditor’s opinion on the separate financial statements Ladies and Gentlemen, It is my pleasure to present the 2016 Annual Report of the LOTOS Group. Our 2016 financial performance was the best in LOTOS history. By capitalising on the expertise and experience of the Management Board and our staff, we successfully achieved the set targets, and delivered strong growth. Our consolidated revenue came in at nearly PLN 21bn, our LIFO-based EBITDA, the most significant financial measure for any oil company, rose 20% during the year (to approximately PLN 2.6bn), and the Group’s ability to generate cash on core operations improved 80%. We steadily and consistently worked towards reducing our debt and optimising sources of financing for investment projects. Our impressive performance was an effect of nearly full utilisation of the refinery units’ capacities, diversification of oil supplies, which was the best in years, and the more than doubled volume of hydrocarbon production from own fields (supported by steady expansionh of the potential of our production assets in Norway). Our trading business was significantly stimulated by the new fuel market legislation: the First Fuel Package introduced by the Polish government to effectively prevent illegal imports of fuels without paying the required taxes.

This article presents the concept of investor-expected rates of return on capital of listed companies and the use of these rates in the assessment of the extent to which the stock evaluation of a given entity is compatible with its intrinsic value. The article also features results of the research aimed at verification – with the use of the presented tool – of whether the market value of WSE-listed companies reflects their fundamental value. The calculations presented in the empirical part of the article show that at the beginning of 2011, market evaluation of the most of the analysed entities greatly exceeded their fundamental value.

FTSE Global Equity Index Series (GEIS) is a benchmark measuring the performance of global equity markets. According to FTSE Russell, FTSE GEIS looks at around 7,400 large-, mid- and small-cap stocks across 47 countries, with a total net market capitalization of USD 52 trillion, covering approximately 98 percent of the world’s investable market. FTSE Russell classifies markets using four categories: Developed, Advanced Emerging, Secondary Emerging and Frontier. Developed market status means that apart from market quality and size criteria being met, the country is considered as having high gross national income with developed market infrastructures. When determining a country's status, FTSE Russell measures, amongst other things, the market quality (regulatory framework, transactional landscape, derivatives market, etc.), adequateness of the market size, consistency and predictability, stability and market access (ease of investment and disinvestment).
