Named world champion in three categories, Borsa Istanbul has ranked third for the past 6 months, the past 3 months and the past week. The stock exchange is also named the world's second rising market with a 7.5 percent boom in the last month.
 
Thanks to measures taken by the government, Turkey has strengthened its growth performance and reduced inflation to 10.9 percent in June from 11.87 percent in April. Also, inflation is expected to further drop and fall to single digit figures in July.
