Lira hits record low level

The Turkish Lira has reached a record low level against peer currencies. The USD/TRY traded above 20.0750 during mid-European hours.

The drop of the currency was caused by the re-election of Recep Rayyip Erdogan as the country's President. Erdogan has extended his rule in Turkey for a third decade.

The economy is set to remain the biggest challenge of the country's government.
