ANKARA, Nov. 12 (Xinhua) -- Trkiye's foreign direct investment (FDI) reached 11.4 billion U.S. dollars in the first nine months of 2025, the highest level in a decade, Turkish Finance and Treasury Minister Mehmet Simsek said Wednesday.

Writing on social media platform X, Simsek said Trkiye's annual current account deficit stood at 20.1 billion dollars as of September, with the current account deficit-to-GDP ratio expected to remain flat at 1.3 percent in the third quarter.

The same period also saw strong debt rollover ratios across both real and banking sectors, recorded as 167 percent and 235 percent, respectively, Simsek added.

Meanwhile, the Turkish Presidential Investment and Finance Office said Wednesday that the FDI volume in the first nine months increased 45.5 percent year-on-year.

The Netherlands ranked as the top investor, followed by Kazakhstan and Luxembourg. By sector, wholesale and retail trade attracted 34 percent of the FDI, manufacturing 30 percent, and information and communication 14 percent, it said.
