Investing in Turkey: the role of incentives
Article Abstract:
Foreign investors should scrutinize the new incentives to investments and exports by which Turkey hopes to foster economic development in regions most in need of it. These incentives will amount to $2 billion in 1993. A knowledge of what Turkey requires for these incentives will help investors to maximize profits. Turkey published two lists of favored sectors in 1993: Sectors of Special Importance and Encouraged Sectors. Tourism, textiles, electronics, environmental protection and agriculture are some of the favored sectors. Incentives include customs relief and subsidized credits.
