TeliaSonera

Turkcell is looking for acquisition opportunities to expand regionally and Iran could be a target market as sanctions against Tehran are lifted, the chief executive of Turkey's largest mobile operator said on Jan. 18.

Turkey's largest telecoms operator Turkcell on Nov. 25 said it was making a non-binding indicative offer for Nordic firm TeliaSonera's 58.55 percent stake in its Eurasian unit Fintur.

Turkey's largest mobile operator Turkcell said on Sept. 17 it was considering acquiring some of the Eurasian assets of its shareholder TeliaSonera, after the Nordic telecom operator said it was looking at leaving seven markets.

Russia?s Alfa Telecom has applied to Turkey?s Competition Board to take indirect control of leading Turkish mobile phone operator Turkcell from Çukurova Holding, the latest step in a long-running battle for control of the company.

I wrote about the election security last week. I did my duty as a volunteer for Oy ve Otesi (Vote and Beyond), took a signed copy of the official result of my ballot box and handed it over to the organization.

TeliaSonera and the other shareholders in Turkcell Holding have agreed to propose to the General Assembly meeting of Turkcell that the largest mobile company in Turkey will distribute dividends, which is calculated at around 4 billion Turkish Liras.

The annual general meeting of the leading Turkish mobile phone company Turkcell failed to convene on May 29, as there has yet to be a settlement amid a long-running dispute between the company’s main shareholders, company officials said.
