Turkish gold jewelry merchants will face new trading regulations. Starting from April, cash gold purchase transactions will be prohibited. Merchants must switch to the bandrol (official certification) system for gold sales. Payment methods will also be strictly restricted—consumers can only complete transactions via bank card or IBAN transfer, and cash payments will no longer be accepted. The implementation of this policy reflects the increasing regulatory scrutiny over cash flow in various countries, aiming to enhance transaction transparency and traceability. For financial markets, such policy adjustments typically indicate a trend toward more cashless transactions and also influence investors' considerations of alternative asset allocations.
