It’s Türkiye time, BCG report says

Hurriyet Daily News - This is the best time to invest in Türkiye, according to a recent report that will be presented to U.S. investors and fund managers who decide on the flow of millions of dollars in funds.

The Boston Consulting Group’s (BCG) Türkiye branch and the Foreign Economic Relations Board of Türkiye (DEİK) will present today a report on the “Global Advantage of Türkiye” at the Türkiye Investment Conference in New York, hosted by the American Turkish Society and Goldman Sachs. Automobiles, textiles, chemicals, steel and food are underlined as export champion industries in the report. It also emphasizes Türkiye’s importance technologically and socially, not just the country’s strategic importance.

Türkiye’s dynamic population creates an extensive labor pool, the report said, noting that Türkiye had the largest working age population – between 15 and 64 – in the European Union and Central and Eastern European countries. The report also underlines Türkiye’s privatization plans for state-run energy generation plants and distribution firms, banks, highways and bridges, ports as well as the country’s sole landline provider, Türk Telekom, and the national lottery company Milli Piyango.
