$1.3 billion invested on Turkey’s stock exchange
ISTANBUL - Anadolu Agency
Turkey’s most important stock exchange market saw its index increase by 19.4 percent while capital inflows reached $443 billion over three months.
The banking sector index, a sub-section of Borsa Istanbul which sees heavy foreign investment, outpaced the main index with a 27.8 percent increase.
Due to ongoing geo-political risks as well as domestic political turmoil, foreign investors started 2014 cautiously, with sales only reaching $500 million in January.
