Maastricht convergence criteria• Planned or actual general government deficit should not exceed 3% of
GDP,
• Public debt should not be higher than 60% of GDP, • Inflation rate should not exceed by more than 1.5 percentage points
the average inflation of the three best EU performers, • The long-term interest rate should not exceed by more than 2
percentage points the average interest rate in the three best EU performers,
• Participation for a minimum period of two years in the ERM II. Over this
period the exchange rate of the domestic currency against the euro should be maintained within fluctuation bands not wider than +/-15% around a central parity.

Real perspective of euro adoption in Poland
• The years 2012 or 2013 seem to be most realistic for Poland’s participation in the euro zone,
• The most difficult criterion to be fulfilled is the level of general government deficit,
• Poland’s priority should be fulfilment of
Maastricht convergence criteria because these are a basis for a sound macroeconomic growth.
