This paper studies the contagion process of the 2008 Global Financial Crisis through several important Polish economic sectors: chemical, construction, food, IT, media, oil & gas and telecommunication. The results show a signiÖcant di§erence between the response of these sectors to the crisis. Chemical, construction, media and oil and gas were a§ected, in di§erent degrees, by a domestic Önancial contagion. The food industry was ináuenced in a negligible degree by contagion, while the IT and telecommunication sectors showed a decrease of their co-movements with the Önancial sector, both foreign and domestic.
