Structure of investors

In February, debt in domestic TS increased by PLN 31.0bn and amounted to PLN 1,539.6 billion. This was the result of an increase in debt towards all three groups of investors: domestic banks (including the NBP), domestic non-bank investors and non-residents by PLN 19.6bn (to PLN 793.7 billion), PLN 4.4bn (to PLN 551.0 billion) and PLN 7.0bn (to PLN 194.9 billion), respectively. As a result, the share of domestic banks (including the NBP) increased to 51.6% from 51.3% in January (51.6% at the end of December 2025), while the share of domestic non-banking investors in the domestic TS debt decreased to 35.8% from 36.2% in the previous month (36.6% at the end of December 2025). However, the share of non-residents in the domestic TS debt increased to 12.7% compared to 12.5% in December (11.8% at the end of December 2025).

* The face value of Treasury securities located on Omnibus accounts (a form of securities register designed for non-residents) at the end of the month is included in “Foreign investors” category.
** As of September 2020, the category "households" replaced the existing category "individuals" and the category "non-financial corporations" replaced the category "non-financial entities". Domestic investors have been extended by category "General government institutions". The scope of entities included in these categories is described in the Regulation of the Minister of Finance of 8 June 2020.

Detailed information on institutional and geographical distribution of non-residents holdings is available in the following tables and in the attached files: Struktura_nierezydentów.xlsm, Nierezydenci_kraje.xlsx, Portfele_nierezydentów_po_seriach.xls. Additionally, a new category “omnibus accounts” was distinguished among foreign entities due to the fact that there is no possibility to identify investors entitled to securities registered on these accounts.

*** Omnibus accounts – accounts run by direct participants of the National Depository (KDPW) who are not holders of securities registered on these accounts. Introduction of omnibus accounts facilitated foreign investors access to Polish Treasury securities market. Due to the previous regulations holding separate account dedicated for operations on Polish market was required which formed cost and organizational barrier.
