Treasury and Finance Minister Mehmet Şimşek made evaluations regarding the economic agenda in a joint broadcast program and emphasized that the effective date of the Fund Guide will not be postponed.

Treasury and Finance Minister Mehmet Şimşek stated in a joint Bloomberg HT-Haberturk broadcast that individuals who have generated income above inflation and a certain amount from liquidation funds from the past to the present have been identified, and that individuals with a real gain of 10 million TL and above will be approached as a priority. Şimşek explicitly stated that the implementation of the Fund Guide will not be postponed.

During the broadcast, Şimşek conveyed that the decision to open hedge funds to TEFAS will be reviewed, and noted regarding private sector bonds that the Credit Guarantee Fund could open a credit package with its own equity for companies not involved in manipulation, and evaluations on this matter are ongoing. Stating that the amount of private sector bonds maturing by the end of the year is 26.5 billion TL, Şimşek indicated that they found MSCI's latest statement quite constructive and that the demands are reasonable.
