Goldman Says Key Istanbul Vote to Have Positive Impact on Lira
Goldman Sachs Group Inc. analysts believe that the high-stakes municipal vote in Istanbul on Sunday will have a positive impact on the Turkish lira, amid increased pressure on the currency because of revived demand for hard currency this month.
The race in Istanbul, the nation’s most affluent city, is watched closely by markets and investors because it’s symbolic of a broader political battle between the opposition and President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
