The external financial position of companies is improving in September 2025.

The Central Bank of the Republic of Turkey (CBRT) has announced the statistics for 'Foreign Currency Assets and Liabilities of Firms Outside the Financial Sector' for the period of September 2025. According to this data, firms' foreign currency assets increased by 3 billion 368 million dollars compared to the previous month of August, while liabilities rose by 2 billion 389 million dollars. As a result of these developments, the net foreign currency position deficit decreased to 182 billion 366 million dollars, showing a decline of 979 million dollars compared to the previous month.

The data indicates that a significant portion of the increase in firms' foreign currency assets is derived from foreign currency deposits in banks. This increase is a positive indicator for financial stability and demonstrates that the strategies for managing foreign currency continue to be effectively implemented. This situation plays an important role in enhancing firms' capabilities to manage foreign currency risk.

For financial markets, such data allows investors and analysts to make broader assessments regarding foreign currency risks. Particularly, developments in foreign currency positions indirectly affect firms' relationships with the markets in which they operate international trade. The increase in firms' foreign currency assets supports their economic activities abroad, while the rise in liabilities indicates that the currency borrowings during this period have followed a slow trajectory.

On the other hand, the reason for the increase in foreign currency assets, particularly recorded in August, highlights that firms have started to manage their financial resources more effectively within the recycling economy. When combined with the positive impact of the liquidity facilities provided by the CBRT on firms' foreign currency assets, this situation significantly contributes to maintaining financial stability.

In summary, as of September 2025, these positive changes in firms' foreign currency positions are regarded as a promising development for the Turkish economy and are recorded as an important step towards minimizing foreign currency risk.
