The quality of institutions is important for economic growth and inflow of foreign direct investment. Business environment institutions may introduce certain adaptations of the conditions as a response to foreign investors’ expectations. The main objective of the research was to evaluate business environment institu-tions, exemplified herein by Investor Service Centres, in terms of their active par-ticipation in the process of attracting foreign investors. The empirical investigation (using questionnaire forms, carried out in the first half of 2013) was completed by employees of 10 centres (62.5%). COI employees use most of the available sources of information about foreign investors. COIs are very active in their information search, and do not resort to the simplest possibilities, for example the Internet. Foreign investors contacted offices having previously found relevant information about chosen investment locations. COIs actively cooperate with other institutions in order to attract foreign investors. They undertake various activities to reach this aim, most of which demand a high degree of engagement. Most often COI employees promoted available investment sites themselves rather than delegate this task to agencies. In order to improve the efficiency of COIs, they should strive towards building relationships between institutions.

Evaluation of the importance of the USA as the trade partner of Poland is the main objective of the paper, based on the changes in the value of trade during the years 2000-2012 and changes in the structure of trade during the years 2008-2012. The data from the Statistical Yearbooks of Foreign Trade published by the Central Statistical Office was used. The potential for foreign trade growth was illustrated using the simplified analysis based on the gravity model of foreign trade concept. Gradually increasing value of Polish trade with the USA (the average growth rate 9.8%, EU-15 countries 13.1%). Polish exports are characterised by a higher than imports growth rate (USA - exports growth by 12.5%, imports 9.2%, EU-15 - exports 15.1%, imports 11.6%). Trade is strongly dominated by position of one group of products (over 30% share in both exports and imports). The potential of trade is poorly exploited currently. Trade was focused mainly on the countries situated in the close neighbourhood (mainly the EU countries with the domination of Germany).

The economic crisis of recent years affected not only the business and financial results of enterprises, but also the value of their investment outlays. The purpose of the article was to analyze and evaluate changes in the value of investment outlays incurred by enterprises with foreign capital in Poland in the years 2007–2012. The analysis allowed to indicate groups of enterprises with the highest dynamic of vulnerable to the economic crisis. The analysis was carried out taking into account the size of the companies and the origin of capital (domestic and foreign). The highest growth rate of investment outlays characterized a group of micro companies with foreign capital. Despite the crisis, the value of imports and exports in the companies with foreign capital did not decrease as much as in the case of investment. Companies with the participation of foreign capital presented a higher growth rate of revenues.
