Summary/Abstract: Completed 7 March 2017, the mid-term revision of the EU’s finances does not introduce profound changes to the common budget by 2020. However, it does affect other features of the financial framework, including increased flexibility and clearer links between EU finances and Community priorities. This signals deep reform of spending beyond 2020 and is likely detrimental to Poland’s EU income. Drawing on previous experience with the MFF, the Polish government should use the period before the start of negotiations on the next financial perspective to minimise the risk of negative changes and to promote its budget agenda.
