Turkey’s current-account balance is expected to post a $2.394 billion surplus in September, according to an Anadolu Agency Finance survey of 14 economists. The same panel projected a full-year 2026 current-account deficit of $45.317 billion. The September surplus estimate points to a month of net foreign-exchange inflow, while the 2026 deficit forecast signals that Turkey’s external financing need is expected to persist. The survey results matter because the current-account gap is a key gauge of external vulnerability and lira pressure. Next, markets will watch the official September payments-balance release to see whether the surplus matches the consensus and whether revisions alter the 2026 deficit outlook.
