TURKEY - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
Turkey's largely free-market economy is increasingly driven
by its industry and service sectors, although its traditional agriculture
sector still accounts for about 25% of employment. An aggressive privatization
program has reduced state involvement in basic industry, banking, transport,
and communication, and an emerging cadre of middle-class entrepreneurs is
adding dynamism to the economy and expanding production beyond the traditional
textiles and clothing sectors. The automotive, construction, and electronics
industries, are rising in importance and have surpassed textiles within
Turkey's export mix. Oil began to flow through the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan pipeline
in May 2006, marking a major milestone that will bring up to 1 million barrels
per day from the Caspian to market. Several gas pipelines projects also are
moving forward to help transport Central Asian gas to Europe through Turkey,
which over the long term will help address Turkey's dependence on imported oil
and gas to meet 97% of its energy needs. After Turkey experienced a severe
financial crisis in 2001, Ankara adopted financial and fiscal reforms as part
of an IMF program. The reforms strengthened the country's economic fundamentals
and ushered in an era of strong growth - averaging more than 6% annually until
2008. Global economic conditions and tighter fiscal policy caused GDP to
contract in 2009, but Turkey's well-regulated financial markets and banking
system helped the country weather the global financial crisis and GDP rebounded
strongly to 9.2% in 2010, as exports returned to normal levels following the
recession. Growth dropped to approximately 3% in 2012. Turkey's public sector
debt to GDP ratio has fallen to about 40%, and at least one rating agency
upgraded Turkey's debt to investment grade in 2012. Turkey remains dependent on
often volatile, short-term investment to finance its large trade deficit. The
stock value of FDI stood at $117 billion at year-end 2012. Inflows have slowed
because of continuing economic turmoil in Europe, the source of much of
Turkey's FDI. Turkey's relatively high current account deficit, uncertainty
related to monetary policy-making, and political turmoil within Turkey's
neighborhood leave the economy vulnerable to destabilizing shifts in investor
confidence.
