The Bank Emisyjny w Polsce was a German-controlled institution established in April 1940 to replace the Bank of Poland and sever the occupied territory's financial ties with the Polish government-in-exile in London. Its notes were deliberately designed to look authoritative — a psychological tool as much as a monetary one. The bank's statutes formally prohibited it from financing the Polish state, which was the point entirely.
The PWPW printing plant had been evacuated from Warsaw before the German occupation and relocated to Kraków, where this note was produced — a detail that frequently causes confusion when the Warsaw-based printer credit is read against the actual place of manufacture.
