  • Banking Law: An act that establish the fundamentals of carrying out banking operations, creation and organization of financial institutions, branches, and agencies of overseas monetary establishments;
  • MiFID2 Directive: The principal EU legislation controlling functioning of investment companies and various aspects of trading with monetary tools. It oversees different kinds of fiscal tools, companies allowed to trade with them. etc;
  • AML Directives: Implement the rules for gatekeeper/ obliged establishments to ensure they apply them for their customers. It also supervises GIIF, fiscal security measures, CRBR, etc;
  • Consumer Loan Legislation: Controls kinds of consumer credit, conditions of providing a loan, companies enabled to be provided with it, kinds of consumer loans, legislative demands for lending establishments, etc.

Abidance to these rules is essential for Fintech enterprises to operate lawfully and protect the interests of their clients.

KNF Regulator

KNF is a Polish authority enabled to oversee local organizations in the boundaries of EU rules. Committee must carry out tasks pertaining to licensing of local establishments, keeping up their register, offering coaching for market attendees, distributing directives and messages directed towards regulated entities.

In addition, there exists an important KNF’s tool, described as Sandbox, which is based on the Open API structure, adhering to the local rules and in accordance with the PSD2 Directive. It serves as a simulated testing space where individuals are able to practice banking and payment processes, which include PIS, AIS, and CAF. Moreover, this tool is accessible without any payment, and TPP permit is not obligatory to obtain.

Eventually, the Sandbox promotes innovation, learning, and abidance by legislative standards in the fiscal sector.

Conclusion

Finally, the Polish Fintech landscape is dynamic, evolving, and it will continue to grow, providing both opportunities and challenges for companies functioning in this sector. However, by embracing digital advancements, compliance with legislative demands, and leveraging tools like Sandbox, Fintech firms in Poland will be able to position themselves for success.
