TCMA ANNUAL REPORT 2021

TCMA Annual Report 2021 20 OVERVIEW OF 2021 Distinguished Members, Following the shock the pandemic created, 2021 has seen global economy relatively revived compared to the previous year as vaccination came into the equation. Continued economic incentives by governments and central banks in an effort to ease the impacts of the pandemic, the fast transformation in financial technology, increased tendency for saving up, and investors’ search for returns brought along a growing interest in capital markets on a global scale. Despite the pandemic, our government worked vigorously to navigate our country through this ordeal as smoothly as possible implementing supportive policies from the onset of the process. Critical changes have been authored within the frame of these efforts and policies, which were directed towards increasing the role of capital markets. Assisted with these supports, we, as the Turkish capital market, left behind a year of records enabled by our successful performance.
