Selling a Business in Turkey
Turkey's M&A market is one of the most dynamic in the EMEA region — a $900bn economy bridging Europe and Asia, with a young and growing population, a significant manufacturing base, and an increasingly sophisticated private equity ecosystem. Istanbul anchors the market as the financial and commercial capital. Turkish businesses attract interest from Middle Eastern sovereign wealth funds, European strategic acquirers, and US and Asian private equity groups. Currency dynamics, regulatory considerations under the Capital Markets Board of Turkey (SPK), and BDDK approval requirements for financial sector transactions are the recurring deal-specific factors.
