ARP loans for JSW and Grupa Azoty to be decided within days

Poland's Industrial Development Agency (ARP) is expected to decide within days on releasing loans to Jastrzębska Spółka Węglowa (JSW) and Grupa Azoty. JSW's financial situation had appeared to be stabilising, but fresh delays are putting the company under renewed strain. The lack of a prompt decision risks worsening the position of both strategically important companies.

Spacecraft flies past snowman-shaped asteroid

A space probe flew very close past an asteroid that resembles a snowman, formed by two rounded bodies joined together.

Poland registers record 312,000 new cars in H1 2026, but figure is artificially inflated

Poland registered over 312,000 new passenger cars in the first half of 2026, a record figure according to the Polish Automotive Industry Association. However, June's surge was artificially inflated by an unusual wave of registrations of final production batches ahead of regulatory changes introduced in July. Industry observers warn the result does not reflect genuine consumer demand.

More than 140 financial entities — including banks, card networks and payment aggregators — have joined forces to develop OpenUSD, a shared stablecoin standard. The initiative is a response to growing market fragmentation, where major institutions each attempt to launch their own digital currency. The project's backers argue that a landscape of dozens of competing stablecoins is unsustainable.
