Key developments and challenges

Some state entities in the energy and transport sectors were privatised in 2009-10. The challenge is now to accelerate the pace of reform and undertake further privatisation projects in the municipal and environmental infrastructure sectors.

A return to sustainable growth will require the authorities to amend rigid labour market regulations, which continue to discourage formal labour market participation and employment.

Fiscal and monetary policy has been suitably accommodative during the crisis. Fiscal prudence, entrenched in a fiscal responsibility law, could reassure investors about the authorities’ commitment to fiscal sustainability and limit the growth of public debt.

Our strategy in Turkey

The Bank aims to increase availability of risk capital and long-term funding to the micro, small and medium sized (MSMEs) enterprises.

Investments elsewhere in the enterprise sector will focus on agribusiness: priority will be on strengthening linkages and standards along the food chain and stimulating a food supply that meets European quality standards.

The Bank also aims to promote favourable market conditions for the development of energy efficiency and renewable energy through its investments. And it will support the government’s privatisation programme in the enterprise and financial institutions sectors.
