TRThe European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) announced an investment of 1.2 billion euros ($1.4 billion) in Türkiye during the first half of 2026. This follows a record year in 2025, where the bank invested 2.7 billion euros across 54 operations in the country. EBRD Vice President Matteo Patrone highlighted the strong pipeline of projects for the remainder of 2026 and noted that the bank expects the annual total to remain at a similar level to last year. The investments aim to provide liquidity to businesses affected by the ongoing crisis in the Middle East and support long-term financing for industrial projects. Patrone emphasized Türkiye's strategic position as a nearshoring destination and secure transit corridor amid global supply chain disruptions and regional geopolitical tensions. Additionally, the EBRD is focusing on supporting Türkiye's industrial decarbonization efforts through the Turkish Industrial Decarbonization Platform (TIDIP), aiming to mobilize 5 billion euros in investments for energy efficiency and decarbonization projects.
