Key Takeaways
– Turkey’s economy continues to expand, with the World Bank reporting GDP growth of 3.6% in 2025, but this masks deep structural vulnerabilities, including inflation running at nearly 35%.
– The political landscape has shifted decisively away from democratic norms; the World Bank’s political data describes Turkey as a “competitive or fully authoritarian system” under President ErdoÄŸan, with judicial capture and suppression of dissent.
РMajor companies like Akbank, Ar̤elik, and Aselsan remain regional powerhouses, yet the business climate is increasingly shaped by political risk and currency instability.
– With a population of nearly 86 million and GDP per capita (PPP) exceeding $45,000, Turkey represents a large, middle-income market — but one where everyday purchasing power is being eroded by relentless price rises.
– Investors and analysts must watch closely: Turkey is a country of contradictions, where economic resilience coexists with political repression and monetary disorder.
