“Our priority is to liquidate problem funds and protect investors’ rights. We will firmly apply sanctions against those who disrupt the fair functioning of markets,” Treasury and Finance Minister Mehmet Şimşek said.
Şimşek said he plans to complete legal changes to strengthen the fight against capital market crimes, including coordinated trading by funds, by the beginning of 2027. “Our aim is to build a transparent, reliable and efficient capital market where investor rights are protected,” he said.

New rules for funds
Şimşek said concentration limits have been introduced for funds, borrowing must now be conducted on organized markets and against collateral, and hedge funds are required to disclose their portfolios weekly. He stressed that there is no systemic risk in capital markets.
Vice President Cevdet Yılmaz also said problem funds are being liquidated through ordinary and extraordinary procedures, and that the process will accelerate after a bill expected to be debated in parliament next week.
