Commenting on Akbank’s second-quarter 2026 financial performance, General Manager Kaan Gür said: “In the second quarter, uncertainties stemming from geopolitical developments caused notable volatility in global markets and commodity prices. While the effects of this volatility were observed domestically in inflation, the external balance, and the budget, the policy measures proactively taken by our economic administration allowed domestic financial markets to follow a relatively calmer course. Throughout this process, Akbank and the Turkish banking sector continued, as always, to provide strong support to the country’s economy.”
“We provided 2.913 trillion TL in credit support to our economy in the first half of 2026”
Gür continued: “In the first half of 2026, we raised the credit support we provided to our economy to a total of 2.913 trillion TL, of which 2.233 trillion TL was cash lending. Our total deposits reached 2.511 trillion TL, while our assets reached 4.012 trillion TL. With our strong consolidated capital adequacy ratio of 16.4 percent, we continued to support the growth and development of the real sector. In the first half of 2026, our bank generated consolidated net profit of 34.333 billion TL after 12.623 billion TL in tax expenses. I would like to thank my colleagues for their successful performance, and all our stakeholders, especially our customers, for the trust they have placed in us.”
