* As of September 17, 2012
Shares of the companies, registered with the
Capital Market Board of Turkey (CMB), but fail to
meet the complete set of listing requirements of
the İMKB can be traded on the ECM. The shares
eligible for trading on the ECM include those issued
by joint stock companies in capital increases by
partially or fully restricting the preemptive rights
of the existing shareholders, and in the case of
secondary public offerings, the shares acquired
by using the rights attached to such shares. The
ECM aims that, the proceeds of an initial public
offering (IPO) or private placement directly satisfy
the financial needs of the issuing company. Thus, an
IPO or a private placement sale by a shareholder is
not allowed on the ECM. Shares traded on the ECM
can be sold to investors either through a public
offering or through private placement on the ECM
primary market.
No quantitative criteria such as profitability,
company age, market capitalization size, or
minimum capital amount are required for
admission to the ECM. Yet, there is a ceiling
constraint that ECM applicant companies should
not meet the criteria defined by the İMKB listing
regulation. The applications of such companies
are rejected and advised that they should apply
for the Equity Market in line with the İMKB listing

İSTANBUL MENKUL KIYMETLER BORSASI
regulation. The ECM traded shares are registered
with the Central Registry Agency (CRA) system in
dematerialized form. The custody and settlement of
the ECM shares are realized in the same method as
the shares traded on the Equity Market. The trading
activity is also carried out on the same electronic
trading platform with the Equity Market at the
same trading hours although by different trading
methods. Mainly, “Continuous Auction with Market
Maker” system is employed for the ECM whereas
“Single Price” method is employed for the securities
without a Market Maker. Cash and security
settlement of trades are completed by the İMKB
Settlement and Custody Bank (Takasbank). Delivery
and exchange of securities and cash is made on T+2
day via Takasbank and the CRA. The ECM trades are
Turkish Lira (¨) denominated.
signed by investors before providing brokerage
services for trading on the ECM.
In order to ease the process of application
and compliance with the respective rules and
regulations, “Market Advisor” system is established
for the ECM. In Market Advisory system İMKB
authorizes the Market Advisors as defined in the
ECM Regulation. Within the framework of the CMB
and the İMKB regulations, the Market Advisor is
responsible to assist the company to complete
the preparations necessary for the admission
application to the ECM; and after admission to the
ECM Directory, to provide advisory services to the
company to help comply with the capital markets
regulations and the İMKB regulation.
KOSGEB (Small and Medium Sized Business
Development and Support Organization of the
Ministry of Industry and Trade) has an incentive
program, for its member SMEs, to help ECM
companies fund their initial public offering costs up
to ¨ 100,000.
Intermediary institutions holding an “Investment
Advisory License” or “Public Offering Intermediation
License”, portfolio management companies holding
an “Investment Advisory License” and venture
capital investment companies are eligible to be
market advisors. The ECM enables investors to
connect with the companies with high growth
potential and to allocate their portfolio investments
to such companies and to become shareholders.
Intermediary institutions should get the “ECM Risk
Notification Form”, which introduces the ECM to
investors and states its main differences and risks,
8
A company traded on the ECM can be transferred
to a sub-market of the Equity Market provided
that it meets the requirements to be traded on that
specific market.
In order to facilitate the public offering procedures,
ECM offers a variety of incentives to companies
such as exemptions and alleviations from some
requirements as well as fee reductions. CMB
registration fee, CRA membership and transaction
fees and İMKB fees for the companies are reduced
to one tenth (1/10) level of those in the Equity
Market. The İMKB also has provided an exemption
from all fees for the ECM companies until 2013.

failure of the other party. The funds of the Account
are made up of the fines collected from İMKB
members with late payments and deliveries to
settlement.
These funds, currently managed by Takasbank, are
activated every day providing the initial liquidity
to the settlement process. At the end of the
settlement, if all parties fulfill their obligations, the
fund is released in full and remunerated in market
terms via the Treasury Department of Takasbank.

2. Indices
Equity Market Indices
İMKB stock indices have been created to measure
joint performances of group of stocks traded on the
İMKB. Until the end of 1996, İMKB used to compute
only the İMKB 100, Financials and Industrials price
indices. As of 1997, İMKB began to calculate sector
and sub-sector indices on the basis of prices and total
return.
İMKB price indices are computed and published
throughout the trading session while the return
indices are calculated and published at the close

İMKB for Investors
Starting from January 1997, İMKB dropped
two zeros from the stock indices (i.e. İMKB 100,
Financials and Industrials) for simplification
purposes. With the implementation, İMKB100 index
value prior to and including December 27, 1996
was divided by 100 to have a January 1986 base
value of 1 (one) instead of the previous 100.
Former values of the İMKB Financials and Industrial
Indices were also divided by 100 to have base
values of December 31, 1990 = 32,56 instead of
3,255.75.
Apart from the Indices above, İMKB provides an
Index calculation and distribution service. TSKB
Energy Index, which is launched on May 3, 2010, is
the first Index to use such service offered by İMKB.
Performance Indices. İMKB also computes and
maintains all stock indices on US dollar and on Euro
basis.
Greece-Turkey 30 Index (GT-30)
The Greece and Turkey 30 Index (GT-30) is a
customized index, created as a result of the
cooperation of İMKB, Athens Stock Exchange
(ATHEX) and STOXX Ltd., a global index provider.
The Index, launched on September 28, 2009, is
calculated independently by STOXX and is used
as an underlying for the creation of a variety of
new financial products including Exchange Traded
Funds (ETFs) traded on both markets, and thereby
provide new investment opportunities to the
investors for the stocks traded on İMKB and ATHEX,
at lower costs with an aim to facilitate cross border
access between the two markets.
İMKB has also started another project, namely
İMKB Sustainability Index (İMKBSI) Project, in
order to attract attention to sustainability, and
to offer a different investment alternative and
comparison criterion for investors. İMKB initiated
the İMKBSI project in partnering with the Business
Council for Sustainable Development Turkey and
in cooperation with international consultants
Hicks, Sinco and SAM Group. The project is aimed
at not only creating an index consisting of the
İMKB-traded companies with a high corporate
sustainability performance, but also furthering the
information about, understanding and application
of sustainability in Turkey.
GT-30 is composed of a total of 30 constituents,
15 from each market, based on their full market
capitalization in descending order. The Index will
be reviewed biannually (March, September) as
to its composition and quarterly (March, June,
September and December) regarding capping
factors.
İMKB Government Debt Securities Indices
İMKB Government Debt Securities (GDS) indices
are formulated in order to fulfill the requirements
of members and investors as well as individuals
and institutions eager to follow and analyze the
changes in prices and yields of fixed-income
securities, through simple and comprehensive
indicators. In addition, İMKB GDS Indices aim
to provide the basis for comparison with other
markets and a foundation for technical studies.
GDS indices are divided into two main groups
namely Price/Performance Indices and Portfolio
The first ETFs tracking the return of the GT-30 were
launched in Turkey and Greece concurrently on
November 3, 2010. These new products are the first
multimarket ETFs and through this new investment
vehicle, investors gain access to the largest stocks
of the Greek and Turkish market simultaneously,
with ease.
Price and Return Indices are available for GT-30,
and in two different currencies, i.e., EUR and TRY.
Dissemination frequency of Price Indices is real
time at 15-seconds intervals, whereas it is end of
day for Return Indices. Data are delivered to data
vendors by STOXX Ltd. over CEF Feed (Deutsche
Börse system)

The first set of Corporate Governance Principles
was published in July 2003. The principles
were determined by a joint commission which
included CMB, İMKB and the Turkish Corporate
Governance Forum experts. CMB revised the
principles in February 2005 and in 2011 a new set
of Corporate Governance Principles issued by CMB.
Accordingly, all companies listed on İMKB excluding
companies listed on Emerging Companies Market
and Watchlist Companies Market, are subject to
mandatory implementation of certain Corporate
Governance Principles.
In order to encourage the listed companies to
comply with the corporate governance principles,
the Executive Council decided to constitute a
special index for companies that have a corporate
governance grade and determined the basic rules
of İMKB Corporate Governance Index on March
10,2004. İMKB Corporate Governance Index is
composed of the İMKB-traded companies with
corporate governance rating grades determined
according to the Principles. Companies which have
the rating grade of at least seven out of ten for
compliance with corporate governance principles
as a whole and which are traded on the İMKB
markets (excluding Watchlist Companies Market)
are eligible for İMKB Corporate Governance
Index.
İMKB Corporate Governance Index started to be
calculated on August 31, 2007 with the beginning
value of 48.082.17, when the number of eligible
companies reached 5. As of end July 2012, the
number of companies included in the Corporate
Governance Index reached 39.
İMKB for Investors
4.IPO in Turkey
Initial public offering (IPO) is defined as the sales of equities to several and unknown investors through a
call and announcement. The method of public offering of company equities may vary subject to a number
of conditions. Companies may choose to offer part of the equities representing the existing capital through
sales of existing shares or to increase capital, restricting the pre-emptive rights of existing shareholders, or
to apply both methods concurrently. IPO’s between 2004-2011 are shown at the below table;

(*) As of September 18, 2012
Moreover, in order to attract new companies, İMKB
made amendments in its regulations so as to allow
the trading of companies which are registered with
the CMB. There is a potential of over 200 companies
that can be traded on the İMKB Equity market in
this context.
IPO Preparation
In order to be traded on the İMKB markets, the
equities of a company should be registered with
the CMB, offered to public and listed on/registered
with the markets. İMKB listing/market registration
means that the stocks which are required to be
continuously traded on the securities exchanges
can be traded on the respective market provided
that they meet the respective terms and conditions.
Creating an In-house Working Group
A working group must be set up to complete
transactions concerning public offering. This
working group should comprise of medium-level
executives, finance department and public relations
staff. The working group should make a list of tasks
to be completed before applying to İMKB and CMB.
Selecting Intermediary Institutions
For the public offering of stocks, an intermediation
agreement should be executed with an
intermediary institution. The parties to that
agreement are the company and the intermediary
institution/s authorized by CMB (a list of
intermediary institutions authorized to undertake
a public offering is available on the website of the
CMB http://www.spk.gov.tr).
21
İSTANBUL MENKUL KIYMETLER BORSASI
The brokerage agreement may be executed with
a single intermediary institution or a syndicate
established by more than one intermediary
institution in line with the amount of the public
offering. In the case of a syndicate, there may be
more than one lead underwriter. The agreement to
be executed should state the responsibilities of the
intermediaries and the companies, whether there
shall be an underwriting obligation or not, how
the underwriting shall take place, which method
shall be used in public offering, and other issues of
essence.
Intermediary institutions use any one of the public
offering methods mentioned below in IPOs;
Best Effort Underwriting: In the best effort contract
the underwriter agrees to sell as many shares as
possible at the agreed-upon price.
Stand-by Underwriting: Also known as strict
underwriting or old-fashioned underwriting.
Stand-by underwriting is a form of stock insurance,
where the issuer contracts the underwriter for the
latter to purchase the shares the issuer failed to sell
under stockholders’ subscription and applications.
Full Underwriting: The underwriter contracts to
purchase all the stocks and then offers to public.
22
The intermediary institution and the issuer
determine the amount and rate of underwriting.
However underwriting is not mandatory according
to the CMB’s regulations.
Preparing the Financial Statements and
Selecting an Independent Audit Firm
Companies applying for a public offering must get
their financial statements drawn up with the capital
markets legislation and independently audited.
Therefore, companies should choose an independent
audit firm authorized by the CMB, and sign an audit
agreement.
General Assembly Decision and Amendment of
Articles of Association
A company that decides to go public prepares
draft amendments to amend its articles of
association with the capital markets legislation and
presents them to the CMB. Any provisions in the
articles of association that restrict the transfer and
circulation of the stocks to be traded on the stock
exchange or prevents the exercising of shareholder
rights should be deleted, and also other provisions
of the articles of association should be adopted to
the capital markets legislation. If public offering
is to be carried out through a capital increase,
the general assembly should decide to increase
the capital and to restricts the rights to buy new
İMKB for Investors
shares in accordance with the provisions of Turkish
Commercial Code.
Price Determination
Determining the issue price is one of the most
important steps of the public offering process, and
depends on both the company and developments
and circumstances beyond the company’s control.
A realistic determination of the issue price is
instrumental to a successful public offering as
well as to the good performance of the stock after
listing in İMKB. The issue price of a company’s
stock is generally calculated by the underwriter
and is free of any intervention by İMKB and CMB.
Principles governing the determination of stock
price are included in the public offering prospectus.
Preparing the Documents Required for
Application
The company and/or the underwriter starts duediligence with İMKB and CMB authorities at the
first stages of the issue, and obtains information
about the required documents and procedures.
Required application documents are regulated
under the İMKB Listing Regulation, and while such
documents are prepared in a general format, they
may vary depending on the company and its sector,
and different documents may be required during
the examinations conducted at the company. The
documents should be delivered with seals and
signatures affixed.
Public Offering and Sales
Public offering is essentially conducted in 3
different methods:
Capital increase - Companies may raise funds by
issuing new shares via capital increase through
partially or fully restricting the pre-emptive rights
of existing shareholders.
Concurrent use of both methods - Companies
are allowed to use both methods concurrently.
Thereby, the shareholder derives income from the
sales of existing shares while the company has
access to financial resources.
Shares are sold to investors in 3 methods:
Book building: The process of generating, capturing
and recording investor demand for shares during
an IPO (or other securities during their issuance
process) in order to support efficient price
discovery.
Sales on stock exchange: Companies may offer their
shares to the public in the primary market of İMKB.
In this method, the application of the company
should be accepted and announced by the
Executive Council of the İMKB. Public offering
on the stock exchange can start on the second
business day upon the announcement at the Public
Disclosure Platform and completed within the time
period specified on the circular.
Sales without book building: The sales of capital
markets instruments to investors via public offering
without book building by setting a certain price.
This method can be used by issuers who are not
obliged to use the other methods.
Sales of existing shares - Company shareholders
may offer part of the shares they hold on or off the
Exchange.

achieving this goal, the global common virtues
such as environmental and ecological friendly
projects, labour and human rights, anti-corruption
and transparency have always been the core
corporate values of the İMKB. Accordingly, İMKB

developments and activities of the İMKB in terms of
24
socially responsible principles set by the UN Global

United Nations’ Principles on Responsible
Investment - UNPRI
In early 2005, the United Nations Secretary
General invited a group of the world’s largest
institutional investors to join a process to develop
the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI).
Individuals representing 20 institutional investors
from 12 countries agreed to participate in the
Investor Group. The Group accepted ownership
of the Principles, and had the freedom to develop
them.
As of end 2011, the signatories of PRI, 997
investment institutions from 47 countries, represent
