Recent economic slowdown had a major influence on foreign direct investors activity in Poland, therefore the aim of this article is to assess the impact of recent economic crisis on changes in the structure of FDI in Poland. The inflow of FDI has decreased and its structure has changed since 2008. But it was not due to the major deterioration of investment climate in Poland, but mostly due to the conservative policy of multinationals. Not only did they limit new international expansion but also reduce production, investments and employment. In turn, small and medium investors were much more active. It was easier for them to flexibly adapt to new economic conditions and take advantage of emerging opportunities.
