TIF Participated in FiCS/G7 Special Event and IEA Workshop

On 29 April 2026, Turkic Investment Fund (TIF), with the delegation represented by Mrs. Betül Sarıkaya, Chief Financial Officer and Mr. Mehmet Esat Mert, International Relations, Capital Mobilization and Treasury Director participated in the FiCS/G7 Special Event in Paris, France. The event brought together Public Development Banks (PDBs) and other key stakeholders to discuss strengthening cooperation, enhancing regulatory frameworks, and advancing innovative financing solutions aimed at narrowing the global development financing gap.

TIF engaged in discussions on how PDBs can operate more effectively as a system, as well as the role of regulatory frameworks in enabling greater impact and efficiency. The sessions also explored approaches to lowering the cost of capital through innovative financial instruments and enhanced collaboration among institutions.

On the following day, TIF also attended a workshop organized by the International Energy Agency (IEA), which convened representatives from development finance institutions, governments, private financial institutions, and international organizations. The workshop examined the cost of capital constraining clean energy investments in emerging markets and developing economies, and discussed policy, de-risking, and financing solutions to scale up private sector mobilization.

The events provided a valuable platform for exchanging views with peer institutions and stakeholders on key global challenges and opportunities in development finance.

TIF’s participation reaffirmed its commitment to strengthening international partnerships, supporting effective financial ecosystems, and contributing to sustainable economic development across its member countries.
