Why It Matters
An investigation is being carried out regarding the funding crisis in the capital markets, which exceeds 18 billion dollars.
Another striking fact emerged with the financial company Tera Yatırım, which is stated to be the biggest actor in the large 'fund' crisis in the capital markets.
Among the things that were frequently mentioned in the discussions about the profiteering, which was stated to have victimized 500 thousand investors, was the "manipulation" warning made by the Minister of Treasury and Finance Mehmet Şimşek on the issue last year.
"SOME FUNDS..."
In his opening speech at the 9th Capital Markets Congress held on November 4, 2025, Minister Şimşek made the following statements, touching on the allegations and risks of manipulation in the capital markets:
"We know that there are manipulations, especially through some funds, and there is a lack of regulation in this area. If we cannot fight against manipulation strongly, trust in this area will remain weak. This is a must for us. We will make the penalties much more severe and increase the dose of the fight."
AA DARKED THAT TOO
One of the sponsors of the conference that witnessed Şimşek's words was Tera Yatırım. The company was among the platinum "sponsors" of the conference.
Within the scope of the investigation into the fund crisis, the total size of which exceeded 18 billion dollars, Tera Yatırım Holding Chairman Emre Tezmen and holding managers Alper Öztürk, Emre Alkin and Kerem Alkin were arrested.
The company's participation as a sponsor in that conference on November 4, 2025 was also served to subscribers as news by the public Anadolu Agency. However, since AA has removed the news about Tera Investment, which was published before the fund robbery, as of yesterday, the relevant news is no longer accessible.
