The Public Disclosure Platform (PDP) operated by Merkezi Kayıt Kuruluşu (MKK) has been launched on 22.03.2025 with its renewed interface and improved infrastructure.
With its modern and user-friendly new interface, the PDP website now provides easier and faster access to public disclosures, as well as company and fund-related information.
Several improvements have been introduced to enhance user experience and efficiency. More detailed disclosures on the homepage provide better visibility, while access to attachments included in disclosures has been simplified. The search and query functions, including detailed disclosure search and financial statement item search, have been redesigned to better meet essential user needs, making the entire platform more user-friendly. Moreover, announcements and general letters related to PDP have been moved to the homepage, allowing users to access them more conveniently.
Along with these functional and design improvements, the website’s infrastructure has been upgraded to global standards using the latest technologies. This transformation ensures a more secure and faster platform, enhancing the efficiency of market participants.
Commenting on the update, MKK CEO and Board Member Dr. Ekrem ARIKAN highlighted the critical role of PDP in Türkiye’s capital markets. He stated, “PDP serves as a primary hub for market developments and key financial data in Türkiye. We are pleased to announce that we have upgraded PDP’s infrastructure and interface to enhance its accessibility and usability for all market participants. PDP is one of the most advanced platforms in Türkiye’s capital markets, and when compared with its counterparts in other countries, it stands out as one of the best practices worldwide in terms of ensuring transparency.”
Providing key figures on PDP’s operations, Dr. Arıkan stated, “Currently, 703 listed companies, 78 investment firms, 93 independent audit firms, 73 portfolio management companies, 4 credit rating agencies, and 48 other institutions—totaling 999 companies—along with 2,889 funds, are actively submitting disclosures on PDP. In total, our platform publishes approximately 140,000 disclosures annually, generating 160 million unique page views per year. This system ensures that market transactions are conducted in a fast, transparent, and reliable manner.”
With the latest regulatory amendments, crypto asset service providers are now also required to fulfill their public disclosure obligations through PDP. Dr. Arıkan noted that this regulatory development reflects the trust placed in PDP’s infrastructure and represents an expansion of its services into the crypto asset sector. He added, “With the expansion of our service scope to include crypto assets, we are strengthening our role in supporting growing markets and the increasing number of investors. The enhancements we have introduced will further improve PDP’s user-friendly interface and accessibility.”
Emphasizing MKK’s role in corporate governance and public disclosure, Dr. Arıkan added, “PDP, in addition to ensuring the smooth functioning of our capital markets, also plays a significant role in improving the corporate maturity levels of publicly traded companies. Furthermore, with its extensive content, PDP makes a notable contribution to financial literacy, which we actively support. This success has also gained recognition internationally, leading to requests for knowledge sharing and collaboration. For instance, we recently received a request from Mongolia to support the establishment of a system modeled after PDP. With the improvements and innovations, we have implemented, we anticipate that similar requests will continue to increase. As MKK, we will continue to enhance our services and products with further innovations.”
