Turkey
Turkey’s swift recovery from the global recession, its stable political climate and a favourable legal system are paving the way for an increase in foreign direct investment. Banking, private equity, M&A and privatisation are all areas tipped for major growth.
The country’s monetary policy is transparent and geared towards stabilising inflation while the recent structural reforms have improved transparency and increased private sector liquidity. These reforms include lowered corporate taxes, lifted regulatory impediments, a major privatisation programme and the introduction of the New Turkish Commercial Code aimed at increasing trade transparency.
