Turkey is one of EBRD’s key countries of operation and will remain a major partner in the future 12 Turkey biggest EBRD investee in In 2016 (as of July), EBRD invested EUR 1.0bn (ca. 20% of total EBRD investment) across 24 projects. Recent coup attempt in July led to a sharp increase in risk premium (rise in Turkish CDS by 80bps) and put pressure on the Turkish Lira. However, markets somewhat stabilised in early August. Fitch confirmed BBB- rating, but changed outlook to negative. For 2016, GDP growth is expected to be moderate (ca. 3.2%); current deficit remains large at 3.8%, albeit falling on the back of low oil prices. EBRD remains committed to investing in Turkey.
