According to information sent to us by 11 of the 16 chambers of foreign income last year, which declared taxpayers , amounted to almost 11 billion zł and was 17 percent. higher than a year earlier. The declaration made 208 thousand. taxpayers. The largest group accounted for in the offices of the Wielkopolska region (over 28 thousand. People) and Podkarpackie (24.6 thous.). Income from abroad also received a large group of residents of Lower Silesia (22.4 thous. Taxpayers).
PKO BP economist Kamil Cisowski is associated growing foreign income not only from scale emigration, but also a change in its structure. For work more often they leave people with high qualifications, attracted by attractive salaries abroad. The first waves of emigration concerned persons engaged in low-paying manual labor, now intensified job search process by specialists such as banking by doctors, engineers and ending with – notes our interlocutor.
According Cisowski will be hard to stop this process. Helpful would be an increase in wages in the country, but it can only slow down the emigration. Because the second reason is the offer of social mobility – in other countries incomparably better than in Poland. According to the economist that the budget for this yet gains (because they grow tax income), it is rather temporary. If somebody decides to leave, it is difficult to expect that throughout his life will be accountable taxes in Poland. People who quit permanently, they are a waste also from a budgetary point of view – assesses Cisowski.
Tax Chambers podliczyły also pre Poles income obtained from exchange transactions. According to information sent to us by the 14 chambers that last year’s profits from the sale of the shares were lower than a year earlier. Also decreased the number of investors who earned on such sales. Almost 163 thousand. taxpayers obtained in this way, a total of nearly 4.1 billion zł income. In 2013. It was 175 thousand. these taxpayers and their income was 4.6 billion zł. At the same time it increased the circle of those who ended their adventure stock exchange at a loss. Last year there were 107 thousand. such persons to 96,2 thousand. a year before. The total loss was smaller and amounted to 1.35 billion zł, compared with 1.5 billion zł year earlier.
decrease in the number of profitable transactions and an increase in those in which investors decided to realize a loss can attest to the fact that some players discouraged the stock market and looking for new, more attractive forms of investment. Indeed, in recent years, it is difficult to earn on the shares. Last year, the main WIG index rose by only 0.3 percent. In the case of the largest companies in the index WIG-20 was worse, because it fell 3.5 percent.
It’s hard to say whether the data on income from the stock market are only a reflection of what was happening on the dance floor the previous year. Perhaps testify about changing the structure of savings and investments, can investors seek profits elsewhere. Recently, we eg. A lot of real estate purchase for cash – notes Expander analyst Jaroslaw Sadowski. I like that most investors prefer safe forms, such as buying bonds and bank deposits, and to Stock Exchange last year could discourage them in weakening the open pension funds.
This demand for shares from the open pension funds over the years sustained prosperity on the dance floor. When the government reduced transfers to the funds outflow of a large part of the insured to Social Security, and the position OFE clearly decreased. Some investors might conclude that on the Warsaw Stock Exchange will be difficult for a decent profit. – In addition to successfully invest in the stock market, you need to have the time and knowledge, able to analyze companies whose shares or she has, and all the sectors in which they operate. The risk of investment in the stock market is high – concludes Sadowski.
Taxes not interfere with a rich
This is not the Polish tax system determines the level of affluence. Regardless of its number of wealthy Poles and so grow, and probably will continue to grow, because it is mainly due to economic development. The tax system is not the decisive factor here – Provides Andrzej Marczak, a partner at KPMG in Poland. If we compare our tax rates in Western Europe, it turns out that they are relatively low.
For such a big country with such a large budgetary needs PIT of 18 and 32 percent. It seems to be acceptable. But against the background of the countries of Central and Eastern Europe, with which we compete, loss of already worse. In many neighbors are flat taxes with even lower rates. If we add other labor costs as contributions to ZUS burden with us will prove to be relatively high – believes Marczak.
KPMG estimates that the total income of wealthy individuals – defined as people earning more than 7,1 thousand monthly. zł gross – maybe this year amount to nearly 154 million zł. Most of this amount would constitute income from work (77 million zł), but a little less can get individual entrepreneurs clearing up by 19 per cent. Line PIT (72.4 million zł), which is usually self-employed, highly qualified specialists. The third largest source of wealth is to be the sale of shares on the stock market (4.4 billion zł). From the annual reports of KPMG luxury goods market, from which these data indicate that a group of wealthy Poles is growing. In 2000. Was approx. 300 thousand. people today shoot up to one million. Progress is very clear – assesses Andrzej Marczak.
The richest – those whose liquid assets are worth more than $ 1 million. – It is in Poland approx. 50 thousand. Here KPMG refers to the calculation of the Swiss Crédit Suisse. The rich have little in comparison with other European countries, even those with smaller populations, such as Portugal (76 thous.). In 2014. In this respect ahead of us even Greece (90 thous. People) and countries such as France (2.5 million), United Kingdom (2 million) and Germany (2 million) are out of our reach. Furthermore, our rich people are relatively poor, as much as 89 percent. one has capital ranging from 1 million to 5 million dollars. These high-end – with a fortune of more than $ 100 million. – Is barely a hundred.
According to the report by KPMG wealthiest Poles is mainly people aged 40-59 years, living in the biggest cities, which indirectly cover with the data we obtained from the tax chambers. More than half are private entrepreneurs, 20 percent. is the highest managers.
