Participation banking assets have grown twice as fast as Turkey’s overall banking sector during the last 10 years and now represent five percent of the industry. Derya Gürerk of Türkiye Finans believes this growth is sustainable if the required capital is brought in. He discusses the bank’s excellent performance last year, including a 25 percent increase in productivity and 22 percent increase in profits, its investment in infrastructure and developing entrepreneurial skills, and its recently issued Sukuks.
