Foreign exchange trading in Turkey has grown rapidly in the last few years. In the latest announcement, KIG BV highlighted the importance of the Turkish market for the global expansion of the company.

“Turkey is one of the most important markets in the MENA region, as it is highly developed and very competitive.
