OLMUKSAN INTERNATIONAL PAPER AMBALAJ SANAYİ VE TİCARET ANONİM ŞİRKETİ Annual Report 2020 7 Dear Shareholders, The year 2020 was marked by the COVID-19 pandemic that heavily impacted economies, businesses and people around the globe. The Turkish economy however was among the few to grow in 2020, achieving a plus of 1.8% in GDP over the year due to industry investments and strong consumer spend. The year had started strong with an increase of 4.5% in Q1 before the first Covid-19 cases appeared in the country in March, followed by a drop of -9% in Q2 and Q3, ending with a strong finish of +5.9% in the final quarter. The Turkish Lira remained under pressure and very volatile seeing significant swings in foreign exchange rate vs. the USD from 5.96TL at the start of the year up to the historical peak of 8.48TL in November. At Olmuksan IP, in 2020, despite the difficult circumstances, we were able to increase our sales volume by 12% and our sales revenues by 21% compared to 2019, resulting in a profitability improvement of 87%. Key drivers were strong and reliable operations along with our business development efforts specifically in the Marmara region, with exports, and in the HQP segment. At all times, we continued to deliver corrugated packaging for our customers, therefore playing a key role in ensuring the continuity of the supply chains for critical goods in the country. We have taken and will continue to take all necessary measures to protect the health and safety of our employees, contractors and visitors. Finally, in 2020 International Paper announced their intent to explore strategic options regarding their majority shareholding in Olmuksan IP, resulting in an agreement being reached in January 2021 between International Paper and the Mondi Group. This move reflects the International Paper strategy to focus on investments in the Packaging business in EMEA that enable the group to have an advantaged position serving attractive markets. It is expected that the transaction will be completed in Q2 2021, subject to certain closing conditions and regulatory approvals. Becoming part of the Mondi Group, already a well-established corrugated packaging operator in Turkey, would be good news for the Olmuksan team and customers.

Tel: 90-532-386-7266. E-mail: [email protected] Received: May 6, 2013 Accepted: June 27, 2013 Online Published: July 9, 2013 doi:10.5430/ijfr.v4n3p127 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5430/ijfr.v4n3p127 Abstract Financial markets in the world, especially for the last three decades, have been evolving significantly in terms of market volumes, operational intensity, institutional and regulations as well as the authorities governing them. The increase in operational volumes and the changing nature of financial markets, creations of new financial products; led to the increase of the importance of financial capital and how it affected day to day life directly became one of the most important theoretical problems. Thus, the transformation witnessed in the financial markets led to a new era, dubbed as “financialization”. In this article, the financialization of companies listed in the Istanbul Stock Exchange’s Industrial Index is analyzed using an econometric technique known as Generalized Method of Moments. The quantitative analysis has used two distinct methods to measure the relationship between firms’ investments and their debts, financial profits, sales and financial payments, variables that constitute variables for measuring financialization. Both models revealed a negative relationship between higher financial benefits and amount of investments. Keywords: financialization, mortgage crisis, generalized method of moments 1.
