Macroeconomic Research activities of the Yapi Kredi Bank are conducted within the Strategic Planning and Research Section. In the Section, Strategic Planning team focuses on the financial sector as a whole and banking system more specifically, while macroeconomic research team focuses on the analysis of the macroeconomic environment in which Yapi Kredi Bank is operating. Both teams also prepare forecasts covering a wide range of issues from banking sector aggregates to economic performance indicators such as inflation, growth and interest rates.
