While there was 1% or 2% tax in the past applications, with the current law, applicants started to benefit from this practice with 0% tax advantage. Natural and legal persons who have reported their wealth abroad to a bank or brokerage house in Turkey until June 30, 2021, will benefit from Wealth Amnesty if they bring these assets to Turkey within the 3 months as of the date of declaration.
Bayram Tekce, Chairman of Tekce Overseas Gayrimenkul AS, the leading real estate company in overseas property sales, evaluated the regulation: “From the real estate market side, we saw the different effects of the Wealth Amnesty. Last year, some foreign investors received Turkish Citizenship through investment to benefit this opportunity that applied to Turkish citizens and they brought their capital to Turkey. This had also a significant influence on the increase of the amount of foreign capital that come to Turkey. Some of our customers have also benefited from Wealth Amnesty in this regard. The recognition of this right to foreigners with the latest regulations, further increases the interest of international investors in Turkey. We still have a few customers that we run the process before the deadline.”
Bekir Yener Yıldırım, Chairman of BYY Finance and Neo Asset Management AS, one of the leading companies in portfolio management and investment fund establishment for foreign investors, stated that: “We have seen the positive effects of the Wealth Amnesty also on the financial markets. Turkey has a highly developed venture capital and real estate investment fund infrastructure. Advantageous tax benefits are also provided to investors who buy such capital market instruments. The monetary funds that enter the country without tax with the Wealth Amnesty, both gain a second tax advantage by turning to venture companies and real estate investment funds in the country, and foreign investors benefit from the transparent, reliable and corporate structure of the capital markets.”

Ant International Research Highlights How Readable AI Memories Can Unlock More Personalised, Privacy-conscious Consumer Experiences2.11.2026 09:52:00 CET | Press release
Human sales and customer representatives have institutional memories to serve clients: their preferences and choices. How can we build a memory mechanism for AI services to create similarly personalised experiences? Ant International’s research on this subject recently received the Senior Area Chair (SAC) Highlight Award from the Best Paper Committee at EMNLP 2026, a leading global AI conference. Why do we need “readable AI memory”? In this paper titled 'Text as a universal interface for transferable personalisation', we look into one fact: until now, AI memory of a user has usually been generated and stored as dense numerical code only the original system can interpret. Two long-standing problems with that: First, today's user profiles are "black boxes" — opaque code locked inside a single app, so activity in one service teaches nothing to another, and every product has to re-learn you from scratch. Second, profiles are welded to the model that created them, so they don't transfer whe
