Borsa Istanbul Decision on Halkbank: Trading to be Suspended Before Secondary Public Offering

Borsa Istanbul has made an important decision regarding Halkbank's secondary public offering process. In line with the bank's request, it has been decided to temporarily suspend trading in HALKB shares on the date to be announced by the bank, before the secondary public offering prospectus is approved by the Capital Markets Board (SPK). This decision was taken to ensure the healthy execution of the secondary public offering process. The date on which trading will be suspended will be separately announced by the bank. Investors need to follow this date and subsequent developments. A secondary public offering means the public offering of shares held by existing shareholders. The process will officially begin after SPK approval. This decision by Borsa Istanbul is considered a measure to prevent potential price fluctuations and maintain market order. The temporary suspension of trading in HALKB shares will temporarily restrict investors' buying and selling transactions. However, this does not mean the stock is completely closed to trading; only a temporary suspension will be applied on the specified date. Not investment advice.
