Investors are awaiting the expected interest rate decision today, as a number of financial institutions and investment banks issued their expectations for the interest rate hike that may be approved by the Monetary Policy Council of the Turkish Central Bank today. Goldman Sachs had issued its forecasts earlier this week, as the bank’s analysts expected that interest rates would be raised by only 250 basis points, bringing the key interest rate to 32.5 percent, while other expectations were higher than these estimates, as bank analysts said Societe Generale said they expect to raise interest rates by 300 basis points, bringing the country’s main interest rate to 33 percent. Finally, Deutsche Bank in Germany and Medley Advisors agreed to raise the interest rate by 500 basis points, bringing the main interest rate to 35 percent.

The Turkish Central Bank has expanded interest rate hike rates over the past four months as part of the bank’s plan to control inflation. Interest rates were raised from 8.5% at the beginning of June to 30% levels at the present time, with continued expectations of an increase in those rates.
