01/18/2015

With 6% of GDP going to oil imports the lower oil prices in 2015 helps to lower the current account deficit. The lower oil price and more capital inflows boosts growth as Turkey is dependent on capital inflows. Higher interest rates hurt growth during the emerging markets crisis in early 2014 and a drop in the value of the lira.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
