Summary created with AI assistance · Source: yenisafak.com
- The Turkish Central Bank anticipates that declining inflation over the coming months will further increase the share of Turkish lira deposits. A blog post indicated that the proportion of lira deposits rose from 48.4% to 51.8% between July and August.
- Measures taken in March, including an unexpected 500 basis point hike in the policy rate to 50%, helped shift preferences towards lira deposits in response to a deteriorating inflation outlook.
- While interest in lira deposits is growing, foreign currency deposits increased during the summer due to a surplus in the current account. The accelerated exit from FX-protected deposits (KKM) due to recent policy changes also contributed to the rise in FX deposits.
- Demand for lira assets is on the rise, and the Central Bank's efforts to manage KKM supply and demand have led to a decrease in KKM accounts starting in April. Despite a $14 billion decline in KKM balances, foreign currency deposits only increased by $3.3 billion from July to August.

- Fitch has increased its growth forecast for the global economy to 2.6%, citing renewed confidence in the European economy. This is backed by an improvement in China's export sector and stronger domestic demand in emerging markets, excluding China. The US economy is slowing gradually while the Eurozone and China show positive growth.
- However, Fitch anticipates world growth to decrease to 2.4% in 2025, primarily due to slow growth in the US and accelerated growth in the Eurozone. China is also expected to experience a decline in growth to 4.5% as exports and government spending decrease.
- Fitch believes that European recovery prospects are strong, with improving trade conditions and energy-intensive industries in Germany resuming growth. Higher real incomes are expected to drive household spending as the negative impact of earlier ECB tightening fades. Despite anticipated monetary policy easing, persistent inflation is expected to result in a gradual decline in global interest rates.
- According to Fitch Ratings, the global monetary policy cycle is transitioning to a phase where interest rates will decrease slowly but still restrict demand. The ECB is expected to cut rates twice more this year, while the US Federal Reserve is set to begin rate cuts in September.
