COMPLIANCE WITH CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRINCIPLES

TSKB seeks to achieve consistent and full compliance with the corporate governance principles published by the Capital Markets Board (CMB) in Turkey. The Bank believes the implementation of these principles to be extremely beneficial from the standpoints of both of the development of national and international capital markets and of the interests of the Bank and its stakeholders. TSKB is preparing this corporate governance principles compliance statement within the framework published by CMB while also taking into account international and sectoral tenets into account.

Corporate Governance Rating

In 2010 TSKB again had the highest corporate governance rating in its sector.
TSKB’s second corporate governance rating report was published in October 2010. In that report, the Bank’s corporate governance rating was given as 8.92, higher than the previous 8.77 rating given in 2009.

As a result of the evaluation made by the Turkish Corporate Governance Association, TSKB ranked second in the “Organizations with the highest corporate governance rating” category with a score of 89.15.

Recognitions for successful corporate governance practices
TSKB’s successful compliance with corporate governance practices was recognized on 13 January 2011 at the 4th Corporate Governance Summit conducted by the Corporate Governance Association of Turkey. As a result of an evaluation made on the basis of a methodology taking into account the ratings of organizations included in the ISE Corporate Governance Index, TSKB ranked second in the “Organizations with the highest corporate governance rating” category with a score of 89.15.

“Relations with stakeholders” remains the category of corporate governance principles practices in which TSKB is cited as being the most successful.
