İbrahim Ömer Gönül faces investigation request for alleged fund supervision failures

The Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor's Office has requested permission from the Ministry of Treasury and Finance to investigate former Capital Markets Board (SPK) Chairman İbrahim Ömer Gönül for abuse of office. The request follows a series of investigations into alleged market manipulation within Borsa Istanbul involving investment funds and portfolio management companies between 2024 and September 2026.

Prosecutors allege that Gönül failed to fulfill his supervisory duties regarding investment funds, which may have allowed for artificial price movements and fraudulent activities. The investigation covers several specific funds, including Tera Portföy Birinci Serbest Fon and Pusula Portföy Hisse Senedi Fonu. Potential crimes being investigated include qualified fraud, money laundering, market fraud, and the establishment of criminal organizations.

In response to the prosecutor's request, Treasury and Finance Minister Mehmet Şimşek has assigned the Ministry's Inspection Board to conduct a preliminary investigation and research into the allegations.
