GFI will route all trades for Turkish equities through Ticaret Securities and there will be a reciprocal arrangement with GFI giving access for Ticaret clients to markets in Western Europe.

Steve McMillan, GFI’s senior managing director, Europe, said: "The Turkish economy is growing rapidly and we want to provide our clients with the widest possible choice of investments. We are already a member of several international stock exchanges and provide access to others through arrangements similar to this."

Also, as well as a fast and secure execution process, we can offer GFI’s clients independent and objective research and analysis.’
