Today, flexible daily exchange-rate liberalization is in place in Turkey. Free-market transactions are effective, and central-bank markets are free to manage foreign exchange activities among banks, with loans and interest rates fluctuating freely, allowing foreign exchange to enter through any channel, as well as an active gold trading market. Turkey is one of the world's freest exchange regimes. Since 1984, its exchange policy has been liberalized; Turkey's Lira is free to convert into foreign currencies. In August 1989, the resolution was adopted to remove restrictions on foreign institutions and individuals' investment in real estate registered on the Stock Exchange in Istanbul, leaving Turkey's stock and public-debt markets, funds and profits on foreign exchange without any restrictions.
