A Divided Turkey
In what has been a very important political event in the history of Turkey, the country appears to be visibly divided on the matter of the powers of the President. Erdogan has been consolidating power for years and eliminating opposition rivals, but the European part of the country is resoundingly voting against the constitutional changes.
Erdogan is likely to have a hard time to consolidate his power further, as the opposition is preparing to contest the vote on grounds of manipulation. The current President's win is far from convincing with 99.8 percent of the votes counted, tallying up to a lead for the “yes” camp with 51.4 percent.
Future volatility will depend on the ways in which Erdogan handles the transition from a parliamentary to a presidential republic. Civil unrest and terror attacks are two major risks that could derail this process. Brokers that are offering currency pairs including the Turkish lira should remain cautious on the upcoming risks.
