  • Since February 2005, sell-side financial and strategic advisor in the privatization of operational rights of six TCDD (Turkish State Railways) ports (Iskenderun, Mersin, Izmir, Derince, Samsun and Bandirma) [This deal has significant importance, as most of the Turkish imports and exports (in tonnage) are carried out through sea ports and the stated ports have considerable market share in total container handling.

The highest bid for the operating rights at the TCDD Ports of Izmir and Derince were US$1.275 billion and US$195.25 million, respectively. The highest bid at the tender related to TCDD Port of Izmir is submitted by Global Yatirim Holding (a local investment firm), Hutchison Whampoa Ltd (world’s leading port investor) and EIB (Aegean Export Association) Consortium; while Turkerler Construction (a local construction firm) had offered the highest bid for TCDD Port of Derince.
