FX.co ★ Turkey’s Current Account Deficit Widens to $7.5 Billion in February 2026

Turkey’s current account deficit deepened in February 2026, reaching $7.50 billion, according to data updated on 13 April 2026. The figure marks a deterioration from January 2026, when the deficit stood at $6.81 billion.

The widening gap suggests that Turkey’s external balances came under increased pressure at the start of the year, with the February reading indicating a larger shortfall between the country’s foreign currency earnings and outflows. Investors and analysts will be watching subsequent monthly releases closely for signs of whether this trend is temporary or the beginning of a more persistent deterioration in Turkey’s current account position.
