Europe banks could sell Polish units

LONDON: The pressure on European banks from the region's debt crisis could cause more of them to sell their Polish subsidiaries, even if those units are performing well, Polish central bank governor Marek Belka said on Thursday.

"Allied Irish Bank had a fantastic subsidiary in Poland, probably the best Polish bank, but had to sell we are waiting and concerned that there will be more cases like this,"

Belka told a conference in London.

"No European bank enjoys our full confidence these days," he added.
