Overseas funds are showing a renewed interest in investing in Turkey, as demonstrated by the successful bond issuance by VakifBank and the initial public offering (IPO) of Ebebek. These recent developments are indicative of a positive shift in sentiment towards Turkey, as foreign investors begin to test the waters again after deserting the country in recent years.
VakifBank, one of Turkey’s largest state-owned banks, successfully issued a $1 billion bond in the international market. The bond issuance was oversubscribed, with demand reaching $4 billion, highlighting the strong appetite for Turkish debt among foreign investors. This successful offering is a testament to the improving confidence in Turkey’s economic prospects and the government’s efforts to stabilize the country’s financial system.
In addition, Ebebek, a leading retailer of baby products in Turkey, completed its IPO on the Istanbul Stock Exchange. The company had initially postponed its IPO due to market volatility but successfully completed it in May 2021. The IPO received strong interest from international investors, with the offering oversubscribed by more than 13 times. This signals growing confidence in the Turkish consumer market and reflects the positive sentiment towards Turkey’s economic recovery.
Overall, the recent bond issuance by VakifBank and the successful IPO of Ebebek illustrate a growing willingness among overseas funds to invest in Turkey. These developments bode well for the country’s economic recovery and demonstrate that investor confidence is gradually returning. With Turkey’s ongoing efforts to attract foreign investments and economic reforms, it is expected that more international investors will continue to test the waters and explore opportunities in the country.
