Erdoğan emphasized that Turkey is ready to contribute not only to its own goals but also to the establishment of financial stability at regional and global levels with its deep-rooted experience.

Capital Markets and Social Responsibility

Stating that the finance sector plays a central role in Turkey's comprehensive economic program, Erdoğan expressed that the depth, diversity of products, and accessibility of capital markets have increased. He also stated his belief that investment markets should be managed not only with a profit-oriented approach but also with consideration for social and environmental impacts.

Recommendations for Global Market Confidence and Cooperation

Erdoğan noted that the general assembly, attended by representatives from around the world, is an important platform for shaping the future of capital markets. He remarked that threats such as money laundering, illegal fund transfers, and manipulative transactions have undermined confidence in global markets.

Istanbul Financial Center and Future Vision

The President highlighted the strong vision of the Istanbul Financial Center to be a hub for financial services and reiterated the determination to carry the country's economic growth goals in a balanced and inclusive manner.

Finally, Erdoğan expressed that he values Borsa Istanbul's active participation in all processes and management of the Federation and wished that the meeting would be beneficial for all participants.
