Borsa Istanbul becomes highest rising market in world

With foreign investors who believe in the future of Turkey taking great interest in the Borsa Istanbul Stock Exchange, it has gained a leading position in the yield league in 2017 and the past year.

The stock market, which broke a historical record by rising above 107,000 points, ranked first in yield ranking with a 36.7 percent rise in 2017, a 49.2 percent rise over the past year and a 40.32 percent rise since its lowest level.
 
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.
