Şimşek and Central Bank Governor Discuss Türkiye's Economic Outlook with Investors

Mehmet Şimşek, the Treasury and Finance Minister, discussed Türkiye's economic outlook and investment opportunities with Fatih Karahan, the Central Bank of the Republic of Türkiye Governor. The meeting took place in New York as part of the Türkiye Investment Conference. Şimşek stated that Türkiye's economy remains resilient to shocks due to its low overall debt-to-GDP ratio, fiscal flexibility, rising international reserves, and the phase-out of the foreign exchange-protected Turkish lira deposit scheme (KKM).

The discussions focused on the roadmap detailed in the government's Medium-Term Program (MTP) and the country's investment environment. The statements by Şimşek regarding low debt and reserves provide signals regarding the government's fiscal health and the economic viability of Türkiye as a destination for international investment.
