Visegrad Group in July 2026: the most important developments in economy
In the Visegrad countries in July 2026, economic news was scattered across the four states. On July 1 Andrej Babiš received a dividend of 4.25 billion Czech crowns from his company Agrofert, a payment that drew attention given his political influence and past conflicts of interest over the group. Slovakia introduced a new tax regime that takes a substantial share of cryptocurrency gains.
In Poland, the central bank governor said on July 9 that inflation is unlikely to grow significantly. He noted that the bank bought 82 tons of gold this year and suggested a possible cut of 25 basis points after the summer. Poland also adopted a resolution guaranteeing access to an AI gigafactory within its territory, and the Polish Armaments Group said it wants to acquire shares in defense and dual-use companies from the state development bank BGK. A Czech minister defended a $100 million contribution to Ukraine.
