Turkey's Young Population Surpasses Total Populations of 117 Countries

Turkey's 12.7 million young population has surpassed the total populations of 117 out of 194 countries. This demographic structure is attracting external interest in terms of employment dynamics and consumption power. Data suggests that the young population creates a competitive advantage on an international scale.

Demographic Ripple: Turkey's Young Population

■Turkey's young population of 12.7 million exceeds the total populations of 117 countries.

■Only 77 out of 194 countries have a larger young population.

■Young population has potential to create demand in the labor market.

■Demographic structure could generate long-term effects in credit, commodities, and stock markets.

Fatih Kılıç: This data indicates that Turkey's young population is generating positive signals in terms of employment and consumption in the short term, but education and employment policies have not captured this potential adequately. Particularly, non-agricultural employment data will clearly reveal the demographic structure.
