  • Global factors: Current risk-off conditions dominate, supported by broader economic and geopolitical uncertainties.

⚠️ What could change it

  • Upside risk: A return to risk appetite might support the TRY, improving the pair.
  • Downside risk: Sustained risk-off sentiment or escalation in geopolitical issues could further pressure the TRY/GBP.
