State aid and EU subsidies

State aid is a constantly developing field of law. The EU and its Member States and many other governments outside the EU have introduced or are about to implement far reaching public support schemes and guidelines in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic, the Ukraine crisis and its impact on the entire economy, and the Green Deal. In fact, the ambitious goals of the Green Deal (e.g., fit for 55) and the conversion of many sectors of the economy (e.g., fuel switch) will only be reached based on a broad swathe of public funding.   

We advise both public authorities and private and state-owned companies on all aspects of the State aid rules within Türkiye. We help businesses to get the most out of state aid in their discussions with State authorities and represent their interests in all State aid proceedings at national authorities.

We support private businesses concerning their State aid strategies, e.g., in the context of the Green Deal or concerning State funded initiatives to make the economy more resilient (e.g., gas and energy supplies). Lawyers from our team have market leading sector specific expertise in State aid matters in the agricultural, automotive, aviation, banking, energy, TMC and transport sectors.
