RESEARCH
Since its foundation, EkspresInvest's primary focus has been to provide the best possible service to international institutional investors investing in Turkey and the solid foundations of the research department have made this possible.

The research team intends to provide comprehensive details necessary before undertaking any investment decision. All aspects of the Turkish market are covered and in addition to company reports, the research team will also monitor daily company announcements, macro economic & political developments as well as relevant information pertaining to the fixed income and money markets.

It should be noted that Ekspres Invest currently has the broadest research coverage of any Turkish brokerage house and it extends to over 70 companies, representing 90% of the Market Cap of the ISE

In order to transmit all relevant information the following publications are routinely prepared and distributed:


Morning Call
A daily bulletin prepared prior to the market open. It contains news & comments on Turkish politics, economy, sectors and companies, foreign exchange and bond markets as well as a prediction of market direction.


Closing call/Trader's daily
A summary of daily price performances of ISE-listed companies and updated valuation tables of companies which are within the Ekspres research universe.


Company Reports
The purpose of these reports is to initiate coverage and/or maintain/change investment recommendations on stocks falling within the research universe. Initiation of coverage aside, reports are usually prepared after the release of interim and term-end financials and when an important event (either macro or company-specific) has a tangible effect upon the company's valuation.


Model Portfolio
In order that investors may easily access a record of the performance of the recommendations made by the research group a model portfolio has been instigated. Monthly updates are published to advise clients of any changes to the portfolio and to track the performance versus the benchmark ISE indices.


Sector Reports
Include analyses on the sectors related to stock coverage within the ISE as well as an overview of relevant global trends.


Strategy Reports
A semi-annual comment on our recommended equity strategy taking a top-down view and encompassing all market facets including prevailing economic and political trends.


Macro-Economic Reports
Periodic reports to comment upon released economic data as well as ongoing monitoring of important economic & political processes such as the EU accession agenda as well as the Presidential & parliamentary elections.


Team
The Research Department was formed in 2003, with an effort to bring together an experienced and a permanent team. To match the needs of an increasing client base and demand, the team was expanded between 2004 and 2006. Currently, the team has an average of five-to six years of experience and a dynamic working environment with a low turnover rate.
