Purpose: The purpose of this article is to examine whether non-financial enterprises operating in Poland show signs of investment policy financialization. Design/methodology/approach: This study uses the method of analysing indicators that identify the structure of financial assets and profitability from financial activities. For this purpose, the financial statements of non-financial enterprises published by the Statistics Poland for the years 2010-2018. Findings: The research shows that, in relation to Polish non-financial enterprises, one cannot talk about the financialization of investment activities. Admittedly, financial asset structure indicators showed an upward trend, but the reason was the acquisition of subsidiaries. The increase in the measures presented was not associated with an increase in profitability from financial activities. The indicators identifying the profitability of the financial sphere show that it generates negative income, which is covered by operating income. Research limitations/implications: Financialization is a developing phenomenon. The presented research covered the years 2010-2018, therefore research on the discussed issue should be continued. Originality/value: According to the traditional approach, the purpose of non-financial enterprises is to generate long-term profit (income) from operational and investment activities. As a result of phenomena associated with financialization, enterprises limit operating activities, especially long-term investment, to short-term financial activities. So they change the investment policy by shifting the capital allocation preference from tangible assets to riskier, but also more profitable financial assets. The originality of the article is associated with the analysis of investment policy in the field of financial investments in relation to enterprises operating in Poland.
