Turkey completes 40.8 billion lira in investment fund liquidations

Turkey completed liquidation transactions in 66 investment funds, paying or transferring assets worth about 40.8 billion lira to more than 45,000 people.

The funds were managed by A1 Portföy, Bulls Portföy and Pardus Portföy, with Ziraat Bank carrying out the transactions.

The number of funds still being liquidated fell from 131 to 65 as a result.

The process is intended to wind up funds ordered into liquidation by Turkey’s Capital Markets Board and return assets to investors.

A bill to support fair and transparent liquidations and provide legal safeguards for payments passed a parliamentary committee on October 14.

Parliament is expected to debate the bill next week, while a broader draft to change capital-markets rules is also under review.

The Capital Markets Board has added funds founded by Hedef Portföy to the same liquidation framework, and payments to as many investors as possible are planned next week, especially those in money-market funds.
