Abstract:
The end of the Bretton Woods System caused the liberalization of markets since 1970. This
effect has been showed its power in Turkey middle of 1980’s. Deregulation and liberalization
of market led to born new opportunities and risks. Reduction of telecommunication and
transportation costs has increased countries convergence. In addition more complex and
variety products have entered the market. Investors have exposure more risk in new
environment Thus, management of risk and governance themes have been very important for
good cooperation. The history of Corporate Governance formed with respect to the
deregulation and liberalization movements. This study stresses the importance of corporate
governance and its history without historians in Turkey. History of Turkish Economic
Environment will have been explained, management thought development also mentioned in
accordance to corporate governance framework.
Recent years have witnessed a growing interest in differences in the corporate governance
structures of countries. One important strand of this literature has been concerned with the
impact of the identity and degree of concentration of ownership and the institutional
mechanisms through which insiders and outsiders of companies interact1. This framework
provides economic policies and corporate governance. It is easy to combine corporate
governance and the economic conditions of an economy.
Design/Methodology/Approach:
In particular, this studying assess the corporate governance
(a) The extent of economic instability with its politics
(b) Improvement of management and governance in Turkey
(c) Corporate Governance Indicators
Economic instability and import substitution policy effects investigate on History of Turkey Economic
Environment, besides management and governance improvement stress on Management Thought

Development in Turkey. Finally, the lack of economic conditions and their policy makers clearly
indicate the lack of corporate governance in Turkey.
Comparison
We also find that the economic conditions in Turkey with regards to various time period.
Development of corporate governance ties these conditions.
Findings:
Corporate Governance in Turkey has not been developed accurately. Till early 1980s, private
entrepreneur capital insufficiency prevented to establish companies, Import substitution
policies to save private entrepreneur also prevented to improve competition, public economic
enterprises could limited access to development of financial markets. All these effects lead to
insufficient corporate governance.
Purpose:
This paper extends this literature by investigating the effects of economic instability and
political decision makings on the power of corporate governance.
Research Limitations/implications:
Although, the extent of economic instability, import substitution policy would be investigated
with their historical studies, these studies do not rely on the empirical tests, no hypothesis
establishes to support also. In addition, empirical analyses of corporate governance in Turkey
are going to evaluate long term, hence it will be planned another studying which is taking
much time. Finally, we can say that, the background of this studying is significant; it can be
more reliable with a hypothesis testing model.
Key words:

Contribution
Economic policies affect the business environment directly. Entrepreneur makes decision
under the condition of economic environment. Internal and external market conjuncture and
the behaviour of rational man/women trend occur with respect to the government policy. This
study is important for the purpose of Economy and Business literature integration to evaluate
corporate governance.
Introduction
The corporate governance landscape in Turkey is characterised by concentrated ownership,
often in the form of family-controlled, financial industrial company groups. Free floats are
often low, pyramidal structures are common and there is a high degree of cross-ownership
within some company groups. Controlling shareholders often play a leading role in the daily
management and strategic direction of publicly held companies. An organised equity market
is a relatively recent phenomenon, with the Istanbul Stock Exchange (ISE) being established
only in 1985. From the mid-1980s until 3-4 years ago, economic conditions were difficult for
companies. Thin markets, relatively few active institutional investors and an unpredictable
macro-economic environment limited incentives for companies to adopt good corporate
governance practices. More recently, however, the return of foreign investors, greater
opportunities for Turkish companies to do business abroad and increasing competition for
foreign capital appear to be encouraging more companies to make good corporate governance
practices a competitive advantage2.
In addition to this, last 25 years information has been more than the before 5.000 years also it
tends to increase continuously.3 Related to information provides more easy, complexity of
transactions increase.
Another perspective stresses the corporate governance in Turkey in accordance to micro
economic conditions rather than OECD macro economic conditions.
Together with the large-scale privatisation and deregulation that took place over the last two
decades in these economies, the Asian crisis in mid 1997 added a new dimension to the
2 OECD, Corporate Governance in Turkey A pilot Study, OECD Publishing, 20063 Borça, G., (2004), "Pazarlama Reçeteleri, Marka Yöneticisinin El Kitabi", Istanbul, Media Cat Yayinlari

importance of these issues. Academic research (Singh, 2003) and some influential economic
analysis, including that of the IMF (1998) and leading US officials (Summers, 1998), suggest
that the fundamental causes of the Asian crisis lay not so much in the macroeconomic
imbalances, but rather in the normal microeconomic behaviour of microeconomic decision-
makers in these economies. This type of (structuralist) analysis of the Asian crisis emphasises
the lack of competition and the lack of sufficiently strong corporate governance structures as
the major reasons of the crisis4.
The continuity and change in business elites seem to be closely related to the alterations in the
politico-economic environment.
This study is important, because business and economy sciences are joined for corporate
governance. That is corporate governance issue evaluates under the macro and micro
economic variables of Turkey. Turkey local investors cannot be successful with respect to the
foreign institutions. The source of fundamental reason of this issue is macro and micro
economic policies. Political instability, capital inadequacy, economic insufficiency so forth
prevents to companies development. Companies’ inefficiency and less management ability
cause undeveloped companies. We can say that, economic conditions led to bad corporate
governance.
History of Turkish Economy ensures macroeconomic structure which affects the micro
variables also. Corporate governance is subject to micro economy for a firm and it is subject
to macro economy for whole firms’ corporation and institutional level.

History of Turkish Economic Environment
At the beginning of the Republic, the number of population was 14 million which 20 % of current
population. Capital formation was low, industrial sector could not be corresponded human needs,
economic conditions were relied upon agriculture, there was no developed financial sector and /or
intermediaries to support economic activities, The number of companies were insufficient to realize
economic activities so forth. All these conditions made difficult to open economic growth and
development.
İzmir Economic Congress was made in 1923 to build up economic policy. Government anticipated
that private oriented development solved the economic instability. This led to government supported to
private entrepreneur. Some of them were:
Türkiye İş Bankası was founded due to fund private agencies in 1924. Sanayi ve Maadin Bankası also
founded to improve industry. Moreover, customs deductions, government aids, marketing facilities,
tax deductions, and land facilities to establish new companies were provided with Industry Support
Law.
Due to private enterprise capital lack, post of Independence War and likely situations caused İzmir
Economic Congress Policies were insufficient. Indeed, the world economic crisis in 1929 revealed
private entrepreneur inconsistency.
Based on the private sector failure, Etaism started to work to satisfy economic growth and
development. Etaism tried to improve economy. Government played major role property rights of
production. This means government intervened economy, produce goods and services, recruitment
employees etc5.
Government activities started with the foundation of Sumerbank in 1933. It was very important
because it had to make factory and production. Etibank established in 1935 to protect mining likewise
Sumerbank.
The World War II caused the rigid etaism activities continued between the periods 1939 – 49 which
was more solid than before. For instance, most of the sources were nationalizated, highly sensitive
market control etc.
5 Emre Kongar, 21. Yüzyılda Türkiye, 2000’li yıllarsa Türkiye’nin Toplumsal Yapısı, Remzi Kitapevi, 34. Basım, s. 351
Bahçeşehir University Page 8
Due to World War II, 1 million young men were taken military obligation. This caused reduction of production.
Why the etaism economic activity did not success to economic stability?
Goverment agencies could not be implement economic develeopment plans due to World War II
stated. Goverment also spent much sources for defensive expenses. This led to reduction of public
investmets. Besides, World War II brought difficulties on foreign trades. New taxes imposed to
compensate war expenses6.
New prime minister started to work in 1950. New policies and strategies had been made. New flow
mechanism was the opposite of the etaism. Government determined its policy with respect to the
private enterprises power. It was planned that, less public economic enterprises and more private
development carried to economy.
Production really increases because of mechanization. The number of employees working in
agriculture sector had decreased due to increase in mechanism. Industrialization had been made by
private sector. Some families started to be rich, who got rich from agriculture, commers etc.
Some of the indicators between the period 1950 and 1960.7
The number of tractors increased from 16.858 to 42.136.
The number of private sector increased from 2.515 to 6639
Although, government fulfilled liberal economic policies, the number of Public Economic Enterprises
started to increase in 1954. Because, capital formation of private sector was still insufficient to solve
economic problems. Secondly the domestic demand increase but the private sector was insufficient
afford the domestic demand. Some of the intermediary goods were necessary for private sector
production.
It was difficult to stress institutionalism and corporate governance until early 1950s. The main
problems are capital inadequacy and external political issues.
Planned Economic Development Program started early 1960’s. Firstly, Government Planned Agency
was founded in 1963 and five years plans made to increase productivity and rapid growth. There has
been 7 planned programs applied, these are:
1st Planned Development Program (1963 – 1967) 2nd Planned Development Program (1968 – 1972) 3rd Planned Development Program (1973 – 1977) 4th Planned Development Program (1979 – 1983)
6 Türkiye’de Sosyal ve Ekonomik Değişmeler, Anadolu Üniversitesi,7 İstanbul Üniversitesi, İktisat Fakültesi, İngilizce İktisat Bölümü, Turkish Economy Lecture, 2004
Bahçeşehir University Page 9
5th Planned Development Program (1985 – 1989) 6th Planned Development Program (1990 – 1994) 7th Planned Development Program (1996 – 2000)
Import Substitution policy defended with 1st Planned Development Program. Government
anticipated increasing domestic investment and expanding manufacturing sector. Production
of imported goods in internal market led to increase in production. This dynamic reduce to
abroad dependency also. Goods and services which were imported from abroad and used
manufacturing sector were forbidden.
Economy reached the high growth rate with the Planned Economy especially periods between
1962 - 1977. Although, between the years 1962 to 1977 the growth rate of Gross Domestic
Product was 6, 7 %, this was reduced after 1977. Foreign exchange bottleneck brought bad
air conditions. In addition, after 1977 political issues occurred, economic environment
affected by political anarchy. Military power started to decision owner and pursued economic
and political agenda. This was continued until 1984 which new democracy movement started.
It was still difficult to stress corporate governance and institutionalism. Internal political
issues and import substitution policies blocked institutionalization.
Although, most of the indicators showed bad score for Turkey economy, liberalization and
internalization movements started early 1980s. Regulatory agencies started to work such as
Capital Market Board (hereafter CMB) in 19818, İstanbul Stock Exchange (hereafter İSE) in
1986.
The main roles of the CMB were to save investors rights and ensure capital market trust and
assurance.
The role of the 24 January Decisions were very important to improvement of market. Both, Loan
interest and time deposit were used in the market freely.
Turkish Economy changed its main policy in 1989 with resolution 32. Turkey has opened global
economy from the closed economy. Currency exchange was free, import and export activities were
free also. This Decision perceived competitiveness thought. Due to government protectionism until
late 1980s, Turkish Companies were not sufficient to compete external market. This led to economic
crisis in 1994.

Bahçeşehir University Page 10
Turkish Economy negatively affected by the crisis 1994. Foreign currency Dollar appreciated in
accordance to Turkish Lira. Inflation rate, interest rate, external and internal market debt increased.
Besides unemployment rate, the number of closed firms etc increased while capacity usage rate
decreased.
Neoliberal macroeconomic policies anticipated to reach stable economic conditions. Open
economy, market power provides resources, reduction of government interventions were
started with middle of 1990s.
Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, the Turkish economic policy was characterised by a
symbiotic relationship between discretionary policies and rent-seeking behaviour. As a result,
Turkey’s macroeconomic performance has deteriorated over time and the risks faced by
corporate actors have increased9.
The negative association between volatility and growth tends to be stronger in countries with
weak institutional quality and pro-cyclical fiscal policies. This finding is very significant for
Turkey – a country that was characterised by poor institutional quality and fiscal indiscipline
throughout the 1990s.
Banking Regulation and Supervision Agency (hereafter BRSA) founded in 1999 and stated to
work in 2000 in accordance to the Banking Law 438910. BRSA has started to work to abolish
instability of financial market and monitor and audit financial sector institutions.
Turkish Economy cannot take an advantage of global economic conditions. Economy faced a
crisis at least each 4-5 years. Turkish Economy deterioration stated with 1997 Asian and 1998
Russian crisis after the year 1994. Moreover November 2000 and the February 2001 crises
affected economic actors deeply. IMF has started to play a major role in Turkish Economy
between the years 1998 and 2008.
After the year 1980s, we can summarize Turkish Economic environment such as:
1980 - 1983 : Liberal Economy and 12 September Management

1984 – 1988 : Promotion of new party and obstruction 1989 - 1993 : Convertibility and external market accord 1994 - 1998 : Problematic growth period 1998 - 2008 : Controlled by IMF
Import Substitution Policy should be critize before the good corporate governance practises.
Import substitution Policies implemented until the open Custom Union in 1996. This means
that, government protect the private sector entrepreneurs with respect to the foreign investors.
Some of the fundamental role of import substitution policy was developing internal market
investments, increasing production capacity of private entrepreneurs, increasing productivity
and decreasing unemployment. Although, government anticipated sustainable economic
growth and long run development target, these targets could not be realized.
Why import substitution policies could not ensured its task? Private enterprises capital
formation could not be sufficient to pursue industrialization widely. Intervention of private
sector handicapped to productive and efficient private companies. Local firms reluctant to
improve their management policies and innovations, research and development ideas did not
important for these period.
Turkish Companies started to play on international market but they cannot obtain more
benefits at the beginning. Due to import substitution policies, they cannot compete abroad
companies. Competitiveness brings corporate governance and import substitution policies
prevented competitive market.
Finally we can say that, Turkish Economic environment was insufficient to support cooperation and
industrialization. Economy made war external crises and capital inadequacy until the years 1960, and
tired to solve internal political issues until the year 1985. Import substitution policies also prevent
good corporate governance.
Management Thought and corporate governance studying are handled in Turkey.
Management and Governance Thought
Although management and governance terms are definitely different, we aware of the terms
management and governance used together. Meaning of management is more local than
governance. It is possible to seen all steps of an organization. Governance is related top
management pursued policies. It protects the relations among the parties Board of Directors,
Bahçeşehir University Page 12
stakeholders, uppermost management of an organization. Firstly, we mention management
here and will be continued with governance.
Turkey economic instability and pursued economic policies prevented to development of both
management and governance thought. Till early 2000. There have been independent variables
causes the undeveloped management such as:
capital inadequacy,
closed economy
government intervention,
protectionism of private entrepreneur,
world economic and political environment
These are the indicators why management concept has not been put in mind. Family
controlled firms intervene all steps of the production process. Goods and services finalize
under the myopic view of families. Aggregation of management thought in each steps of the
company led to governance thought.
Corporate Governance Development in Turkey
As we mentioned History of Turkish Economic Environment, Turkey has volatile economic
conditions which prevent good corporate governance. This is the reason why Turkey applied
Corporate Governance Principles lately.
Turkey is a latecomer with respect to corporate governance implementation. In December
2002, the Turkish Industrialists’ and Businessmen’s Association (TUSIAD) introduced
Turkey’s first code of best practice. In July 2003, the Capital Markets Board of Turkey
(CMB) issued comprehensive corporate governance principles which became the source of
(non-binding) corporate governance standards for publicly held companies. In 2003, The
Corporate Governance Association of Turkey was founded. In 2005, CMB amended the
principles taking into account revisions made to the Organisation for Economic Co-Operation
and Development (OECD) Principles in 2004. Finally in August 2007, the Istanbul Stock
Bahçeşehir University Page 13
Exchange (ISE) launched the Corporate Governance Index, an index of companies that
comply with the corporate governance principles of CMB11.
In 2004 Turkey became the pilot company of OECD for their study encouraging Member
States to apply corporate governance principles. This pilot study also ‘‘has helped the OECD
to develop a new method for evaluation that will give policy makers a better understanding of
the steps they should take’’ (Gurria, 2006). OECD published the report concerning corporate
governance applications in Turkey in 2006. Turkey received high marks from the OECD for
CMB and its regulatory reforms. According to the report (OECD, 2006) Turkey has a strong
regulatory framework for corporate governance. International accounting and auditing
standards have begun to be applied and the disclosure requirements are improving. The
Report recommends Turkey to revise Turkish Company Law in order to require more
disclosure on deals between companies belonging to a group. It was also recommended that
the duty of setting Turkish Accounting Standards would be centralized under the Turkish
Accounting Standards Board12.
The corporate governance rating is also a new issue for Turkey, and presently there are three
companies one local and two multinational, offering this service. Additionally, ISE is trying
to devise a corporate governance index that can start to operate with five listed companies that
have a corporate governance rating score of six out of 10. In June 2006 there were only three
Turkish listed companies that had been assigned a rating score. The index became operational
in August 2007; presently there are seven companies listed in the ISE Corporate Governance
Index. In Turkey, the reform process has been more difficult and slower than expected not all
firms have been enthusiastic about adopting the corporate governance principles issued by
CMB.
When Turkey Economic Environment and late corporate governance are thought together, we
can say that, application of corporate governance principle for good corporate governance has
begun late in Turkey.
Reasons of this as follows:11 Heidrick & Struggles, Corporate Governance Report 2009, Board in Turbulent Times, Turkey – Suplement to the European Report12 Aylin Poroy, David Crowther; Corporate Governance in Turkey: Reform and Convergence, Emerald, Socail Responsibility Journal, Vol.4, No.3, 2008
Bahçeşehir University Page 14
We mentioned so far, Turkey economic environment affected corporate governance situation.
Supranational organizations such as the OECD, IMF and World Bank seek to institutionalize
codes of best practice in corporate governance and are supported by institutional investors and
investors’ associations. These organizations also encourage and/or oblige national
governments to adopt these codes and to establish the necessary institutions to monitor
compliance at the firm level. On the other hand, there are also organizational actors who
benefit from, are committed to and/or take-for-granted the current governance structures. This
second set of actors is expected to mobilize effort and act strategically to maintain the current
institutional arrangements13.
OECD’s most significant institutional work has been its publication of the ‘‘Principles of
Corporate Governance’’ (1999) which defines what good corporate governance means.
OECD’s (2004) Principles have become an international benchmark for policy makers,
investors, corporations and other stakeholders. The principles regarding the rights of
shareholders, the role of stakeholders and responsibilities of the board not only created a
model to be imitated but also introduced an alternative to the institutionalized corporate
governance structures and practices prevailing around the world14.
Secondly, supranational organizations corporate governance awareness is closed today. Due
to closed company bottlenecks – mostly important was Enron – which was related to good
governance issues, these organizations dealed with corporate governance late. Due to
supranational organization awareness on corporate governance late, it has been applied in
Turkey lately.
Although, this two perspective solve the bad corporate governance situation in Turkey, we
should look another structural problems related with Turkey.
Most important issue related to corporate governance occur in Small and Medium Enterprises.
(hereafter SME). Mostly, the source of problems in SME are depended financial indicators

Bahçeşehir University Page 15
rather than organizational breakdowns. This is a managememt fault, because most of the
deficiencies are arised lack of managership and directorship problems15.
The measure of good corporate governance is not the number of familiy controlled firms.
Productivity and efficiency of family controlled firms are the milestones of good corporate
governance. Most of the firms succesfull stories are won with the family controlled firms.
Distribution of familiy controlled firms in some countries are16:
Country The Share in Family(%)
Italy 99
Germanny 80
U.S. 90
Turkey 92
Table 1.1 Family Controlled Company Share is Countries
In addition to above, types of families with respect to the countries are; The South Corean
Chaebol, Turkey Holdings, Indian Business Houses, Latin American Grupos, Japan Keiretsu
(mitsubishi, mitsui,sumitomo,fuyo,daiichi kangyo,sanwa), zaibatsu Despite their large size,
business groups are usually owned and managed by a single or small number of families.
Regional differences are also important for good corporate governance, Company culture is
influenced by regions. Regional diversity led to change organization governance style in
Turkey especially Anotolian.
Unrecorded transactions prevent to corporate governance. This theme is very signifinact issue
under the Turkey economic environment. Corporate governance is a luxury term for these
companies.

Bahçeşehir University Page 16
Family controlled firms informal relations are more, rather than other types of firms.
Bureacracy rate is less, this increases the financial statements importance. Because,
accounting transactions are legal issues, which are not dependent informal relations. In
addtion, recording all transactions and transparancy play a major role for accounting and
corporate governance.17
We can say that, the environment in Turkey has not been suitable for corporate governance so
far. This can be proved by some corporate governance indicators.
Some Corporate Governance Indicators
There have been most of the variables to measure corporate governance level of an economy.
We choose three independent variables which indicate corporate governance power. Firstly
the number of established firms, secondly types of company structures in 500 biggest
companies and last foreign direct investments. Why these represantors are selected? The
number of established firms will be increase in strong economic policies in emergency market
looks like Turkey. Types of company structure, such as joint stock and limited partnership
show the institutional level also. Last, foreign direct investment selects the country on the
condition of good corporate governance and sustainable economies.
Foundation of Companies
In 2009, the number of established company was 3.526 as at November 2009. The share of
Limited Partnership was 93 %, in total established companies. In other words, the share in
joint stock was 5 %.18
Sector distrubitution of founded companies are as follows:

Table 1.2 The Number of Establishing Firms in accordance to its sectorSource: TUİK
Most of the companies established in 2009 are taken place into production sector,
Furthermore service sector companies are less than others. Number of service companies is a
good indicator in developed companies, because service sector covers values which are added
Gross National Product. As we mentioned before, good corporate governance likes economic
values.
Although, the number of service sector companies has been applied corporate governance
indicator successfully, there have been most of the entities, apply corporate governance
principle successfully in other sector. We can say that, corporate governance principles are
not entirely pursued by service sector.
Numbers of establishing and closing companies and cooperatives in Turkey in accordance to
Company Type is indicated Appendix 1
Types of Company structure
The majority of Turkish listed companies are usually tightly held by a group which is
characterized as a union of parent and subsidiaries interconnected in terms of capital,
Bahçeşehir University Page 18
management, and control. These companies are ultimately owned and controlled by families
who organize a large number of companies under a pyramidal ownership structure or through
a complicated web of inter-corporate shareholdings. Turkish listed companies can be
characterized as multi-activity firms operating in a wide range of unrelated sectors with
vertically centralized authority structures

Limited partnership companies share in 500 biggest companies is 3 % in accordance to
number and 2 % revenue. We can say that joint stock companies are more powerful than
limited partnership who applies corporate governance roles.
500 biggest companies in Turkey and companies who are traded in ISO also indicated
Appendix.
Foreign Direct Investment
In view of the existing entrepreneurial potential, the level of foreign direct investment appears
still to be relatively low in Turkey. Indications are that there exists a correlation between the
low level of foreign investment and good public and corporate governance practices. Strategic
investors seem not to be convinced that the economic environment is institutionalized in such
a way that it will provide sustainable economic stability19.
19 Fulya Sarı, Corporate Governance Makes a Difference, Leaders, February 2007
Bahçeşehir University Page 19
Table 1.4: International Direct Investment (Inflows)
Foreign direct investment inflows the country on the conditions of best economic stability,
sustainability, growth and development macro economic conditions. The number of
established companies has been increased among years. As we are looking on Table 1.3, we
can say that except the 2008 financial crisis start, number of companies financed by foreign
investors has been increased constant. This shows that, Turkey institutionalization and
corporation is improved.
Corporate governance is also important for merger and acquisitions. Participations of foreign
investors in Turkey have also increased between the years 2004 to en of 2008.
Corporate Governance Benefits and Different Applications
Corporate governance adds most of the benefits to entities existence such as;
Investors are more confident Protecting shareholders rights Issued frequent and transparent financial reports Independent board providing management oversight
Although there is a consensus that implementation of corporate governance principles is
useful, no single corporate governance model is valid for every country However, the
concepts of equality, transparency, accountability and responsibility appear to be main

concepts in all widely acknowledged approaches to international corporate governance. One
of the first attempts to develop a global set of principles was made by OECD. The OECD
principles acknowledge that there can be no ‘one size fits all’ standard for every country.
However, OECD recommends a set of guiding principles which provide the structure through
which the objectives of the company and the means of attaining those objectives and
monitoring performance are determined. Revised OECD principles encompass five main
areas: the rights of shareholders, the equitable treatment of shareholders, the role of
stakeholders in corporate governance, disclosure and transparency, and the responsibilities of
the board20.
In 2002, the USA passed the Sarbanes–Oxley Law which seeks to strengthen auditor
independence and establish a new regulatory body for auditors of listed firms in the USA.
Similarly, Germany adopted its corporate governance principles as law and the principles
have become a legal obligation. Furthermore, Japan also re-examined and improved its
company law. Russia, on the other hand, announced new corporate governance regulations.
The European Commission (EC) made an action plan for the coming years within the
framework of proposed directives. These directives aim to increase efficiency, enlarge the
scope of public disclosure, remove obstacles to cross-border shareholder communication and
participation, and enhance the responsibility of board members. The International
Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) emphasizes corporate governance as a
prominent issue that should be addressed by national regulators. IOSCO attaches the utmost
importance to efficient and timely enforcement of these codes, laws and regulations. In this
regard, in October 2003, IOSCO Emerging Markets Committee convened a task force to
examine measures to improve public and private sector enforcement of corporate governance
principles and to recommend a framework to its members21
Conclusion

lot of reasons Why Turkey corporate governance reach its desired level.

governance and management thought in Turkey
