After the Central Bank Monetary Policy Committee (PPK) reduced the policy rate by 425 points, the business community, especially TOBB, called for lowering interest rates on loans, and the public banks responded to these calls and lowered interest rates below 1%.

Answering the questions about the reflections of interest rate cuts on the market, Hisarcıklıoğlu emphasized that they welcomed the support of the public banks answering the call of the Central Bank following the interest rate cut.

Hisarcıklıoğlu stated that they have begun to see the positive effects of these efforts in the markets under the coordination of Treasury and Finance Minister Berat Albayrak, “We are sure that we will see the net effect in production and growth figures with the acceleration of the loan interest rate reduction process.”
