States that the use of such currencies should emphasize agricultural development in Poland.\nDeclares that it is U.S. policy that:  (1) U.S.  persons, financial institutions, and other persons may provide financial and technical assistance to credit unions in Poland and Hungary; and (2) federally insured depository institutions may provide technical assistance to such credit unions, to the extent that such assistance is prudent and not inconsistent with safe and sound banking practice.\nAmends the Federal Credit Union Act to allow Federal credit unions to provide technical assistance to credit unions in Poland and Hungary.\nTitle III:  Trade and Investment\n- Amends the Trade Act of 1974 to remove Poland from the list of countries ineligible for designations as beneficiary developing countries.\nRequires the Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC) to support projects in Poland and Hungary to enhance the nongovernmental sector and reduce state involvement in the economy.\nAuthorizes the Export-Import Bank to extend financial services to Poland and Hungary.\nAmends the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 to authorize the President to provide guarantees to the Bank for liabilities incurred in connection with guarantees or insurance for financing involving exports of goods and services for the private sector in Poland.
