The minimum capital amount required for transition to the registered capital system has been increased to TRY 100,000,000.
On the same date, the listing requirements have been also updated with the revisions made in the Listing Directive by İstanbul Stock Exchange (Borsa İstanbul). Accordingly, the minimum ratio of the nominal value of shares offered to public to the capital for the Stars Market has been decreased from 15% to 10% and minimum market value of shares offered to public has been increased:
