Turkey’s economic program is designed to ensure balanced growth, price stability, fiscal discipline, and a sustainable current account deficit, Finance Minister Mehmet Şimşek has stated.
Şimşek highlighted that President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan recently outlined a roadmap for structural reforms during the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) congress, setting the stage for a transformation in the country’s economic landscape.
“We are committed to maintaining fiscal discipline by reinforcing financial regulations and enhancing fairness and efficiency in taxation,” Şimşek wrote on X.
The government’s strategy also prioritizes the green and digital transformation of the economy, aiming to expand production capacity nationwide through local development initiatives and industrial modernization, he added.
Şimşek emphasized that with Erdoğan’s strong backing, Turkey is on course to meet its economic objectives, including achieving high, inclusive, and balanced growth while ensuring fiscal responsibility.
Boosting Foreign Investment in Technology and AI
Meanwhile, Ahmet Burak Dağlıoğlu, head of Turkey’s Investment Office, expressed optimism about the continued influx of foreign investment into green technology, renewable energy, and artificial intelligence sectors.
Speaking to Anadolu Agency at the Bridge Summit in London, Dağlıoğlu underscored Turkey’s growing reputation in the global tech ecosystem, citing the country’s thriving startups that are developing competitive solutions.
To support this momentum, the Investment Office is working to channel capital into these high-potential companies and facilitate their access to funding.
“Turkey has already established several investment funds, but we are also focused on attracting global technology funds. One of our main objectives in London is to secure these investments,” Dağlıoğlu noted.
