Türkiye has secured a groundbreaking $5 billion financing deal with the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB), marking the beginning of a multi-year partnership to fund vital infrastructure and sustainable development projects across the country.
In a significant step towards deepening international financial cooperation, Türkiye’s Treasury and Finance Ministry has formalized a $5 billion financing deal with the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) to support key public projects across the country.
The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), signed on Monday, marks the first-ever multi-year framework between Türkiye and AIIB, setting the stage for a robust partnership through 2027.
The deal will fund crucial infrastructure projects in sectors such as energy, transportation, water management, and export financing, with an emphasis on sustainable and green development. This financing commitment underscores Türkiye’s growing prominence as a preferred partner in global development, driven by its strategic economic plans and strong ties with international development banks.
In addition to the public sector financing, AIIB plans to inject another $5 billion into Türkiye’s private sector, further diversifying funding sources for businesses and infrastructure projects. By the end of 2024, Türkiye’s active portfolio with international financial institutions is expected to reach an impressive $35 billion, a testament to the confidence global partners have in the country’s economic stability and growth potential.
This landmark agreement positions Türkiye as a key player in regional and global development efforts, unlocking new opportunities for both public and private sector growth.
