The article outlines upcoming changes in Polish law aimed at minority shareholders of limited liability companies and private joint-stock companies, particularly focusing on the conditions under which a minority shareholder can exit the company. It details the legislative modifications that facilitate compulsory buyouts, indicating that certain criteria will need to be met for a minority shareholder to successfully leave a limited liability company.
Furthermore, the article explores the implications of these changes, including the circumstances that could be classified as grossly harmful to minority shareholders, which consequently may justify a forced exit. It elaborates on how courts will assess the value of shares during the buyout process, highlighting the judicial approach that will be adopted to protect minority interests in corporate governance.

These changes aim to improve shareholder dynamics and may encourage investment by providing more security to minority stakeholders within Polish companies.
