The Central Bank maintains bilateral relations with central banks and monetary authorities of other countries to play an active role in the international arena. In this framework, the Central Bank has signed memorandums of understanding with other central banks and accordingly, it performs technical cooperation and high-level dialogue activities.

The Bank signed the first memorandum of understanding in 2010 as part of a drive to formalize its bilateral relations with other central banks. So far, the Bank has signed memorandums of understanding with 37 central banks from different regions of the world, particularly those in the nearby geography with whom Türkiye has cultural and historical ties. These memorandums of understanding are intended to introduce new and enhanced cooperation, ensure continued and regular communication among central banks, and develop an understanding of cooperation based on exchange of information and experience in the field of central banking.
