Paweł Dziekański



Abstract

The aim of the following article is to present the possibility of using a synthetic index to assess and analyze the spatial differentiation of the financial condition of a self-government on the example of the counties of Świętokrzyskie Voivodship in Poland. The analysis done is static (in the range of differentiation level of the value indexes) and dynamic, including the comparison of county situations. The data from the Local Data Bank of the Central Statistical Office in the years 2003, 2005, 2007, 2010 and 2014 were used as the source material. The decline of the financial situation of the counties in the years 2008–2011 connected with the economic crisis was proven. Their financial independence and the inclination to invest decreased. The situation is diverse in the aspect of the financial condition of the counties of Świętokrzyskie Voivodship. In the studied years the lowest index was, correspondingly, in the agricultural counties: pińczowski (0,38), jędrzejowski (0,32), and kazimierski (0,29; 0,31; 0,43), while the highest was in the industrial counties: starachowicki (0,58; 0,60; 0,67; 0,68; 0,66) and skarżyski (0,52; 0,56; 0,65; 0,65; 0,61).
