Flat-rate raise plan for retirees: Here are the figures reflected in the backstage!

Turkish Labour and Social Security Minister Vedat Işıkhan has announced a new package of additional improvements to pension payments, with details still being finalized. Officials are weighing two options: a flat across-the-board raise for all retirees or a welfare supplement added on top of the inflation differential, and the plan is expected to cover the full retiree population. The move matters because it signals extra fiscal support for pensioners beyond the standard inflation-indexed adjustment, with the size of the increase yet to be confirmed. Markets and beneficiaries will watch for the formal announcement of the figure and the scope of eligibility.
