The BFG Council set the total level of banks' contributions in 2023 at 1.455 billion zlotys ($327.4 million), including nothing for the bank guarantee fund, compared to a total of 2.195 billion zlotys in 2022, it said in a statement.
"The decrease in risk in the banking sector made it possible to reduce the target level (...), thanks to which in 2023 banks will not pay even a single zloty of contributions to the bank guarantee fund," Piotr Tomaszewski, the head of BFG, was quoted as saying in a statement.
"As a result, the burden of contributions to BFG this year
is the lowest since 2014."
The total amount of contributions to the bank resolution
fund in 2023 will amount to 1.455 billion zlotys compared to
1.693 billion zlotys in 2022, BFG said.
