The currency of Poland is the Polish złoty, abbreviated as PLN. The złoty has been in use since the 14th century, although it underwent changes and redenominations over the years. The currency is subdivided into 100 groszy. The Polish złoty's value is influenced by various economic factors, including inflation, interest rates, and Poland's overall economic stability. As a member of the European Union, Poland's economic policies and currency performance are often compared to other EU countries, even though Poland has not adopted the euro as its official currency.
