Turkey’s minimum pension may rise to 30,000 lira under a welfare top-up being weighed after comments from Treasury and Finance Minister Mehmet Şimşek and Vice President Cevdet Yılmaz, according to SGK expert Özgür Erdursun. Erdursun, who has previously anticipated pension increases, addressed whether the lowest pension will reach 30,000 lira and whether retirees could receive a 50% raise. The government has yet to confirm the final figure and timing, leaving the scale of the increase and its budget cost unresolved. The decision matters because it would set the floor for millions of retirees and shape both household income and the cost of Turkey’s pension system.
