The Turkish central bank has raised reserve capital requirements
for banks, forcing banks to set aside more capital and issue fewer
loans in order to restrict domestic credit demand.
But despite sector-wide tensions following the
decisions by the central bank, the general impression among senior
bankers RBI has spoken to was that they were not too
worried about the this year’s earnings.
At Denizbank, social media, besides the push into the
alternative delivery segment, is top on the bank’s agenda this
year, according to Erdag.
He said that the bank would use social media platforms such as
Facebook a lot more and integrate it into the bank’s business.
In April, RBI kicked off its
series on Turkish banks with Akbank.
