Why Turkey is cheaper now?
Turkey's economy is in technical recession now. Economic and political problems have flourished in 2018 and since that time situation hasn't become better.
Turkey has huge, more than other major emerging markets, foreign currency debts, mostly dollars. According to the Bank for International Settlements, Turkish borrowers owe around $200 billion to international banks.
High inflation, denial of President Erdogan to raise interest rate, very low foreign reserves of $130 billion, political tensions with the US, - led Turkish Lira’s downfall. JPMorgan Chase & Co. recommended investors go long on the dollar against the lira, targeting a move to 5.90.
By the end of 2020, Turkish Central Bank has raised its interest rate by 200 basis points to 17%, which had stabilized the economic situation. However we can see that Lira is still under pressure.
Update. Due to the next interference of President Erdogan in the affairs of the monetary lira lost more than 10%.
Lira has lost more than 46% in comparison with Euro and more than 53% with USD.
Inflation rate is 80.2% and EU inflation is 9.1%.
