During the annual meetings of the World Economic Forum held in Switzerland, Murat Yalcintas, general manager of the Turkish holding company OYAK, said that 2025 was a year marked by financial discipline, that interest rates began to decline towards the end of the year, and that with these developments, Turkey's economy has now moved to a more predictable footing, according to media reports.
Predictability in the economy and investment opportunities
In his assessment of the Turkish economy, Mr. Yalcintas said that economic indicators provide a clearer picture, noting that the process of fiscal discipline and stability will allow companies to make healthier medium-term investment decisions. He emphasized that such a predictable environment is important for companies' investment planning and strategic decision-making.
Referring to OYAK's upcoming investment plans, Mr. Yalcintas said that the group will actively engage in projects aimed at improving efficiency and competitiveness, and that growth opportunities will also be assessed in 2026.
Plans IPO
Highlighting OYAK's capital markets strategies, he said OYAK could make one or two significant announcements in the third quarter of 2026 regarding its initial public offering (IPO) plans. The move was described as part of the company's broader growth and investment strategy.
