Research Interests: Dr. Buszko investigates the shadow economy (tax evasion, informal labor markets), financial systems (optimal currency zones, exchange rates), and institutional economics (quality management, intellectual capital). His work often intersects with political economy (populism’s role in informality) and development economics (FDI in post-transition states).

Publication Trends: Over 15 years, his research emphasizes Economics and Finance, with recurring sub-fields like Shadow Economy, Tax Efficiency, Intellectual Capital, and Quality Management. Recent work (2025) explores tax optimization mechanisms in informal economies, building on earlier studies of corruption, FDI, and labor flexibility.

Doctoral Supervision: Dr. Buszko has supervised 1 doctoral student and promoted 3 doctors. He welcomes both Polish and international candidates, focusing on topics like grey zone dynamics and financial systems. His department possesses infrastructure to support research in these areas.
