A probe by the Financial Crimes Investigation Board (MASAK) was requested into the financial transactions of executives and their relatives at Pusula Finans Holding, Tera Yatırım, Hedef Holding, and Bulls Yatırım. YENİ Party lawmaker Sezgin Tanrıkulu said a loss of 525 billion lira (TL) was condoned in recent months and more than 500,000 small investors were affected.

Upon the request of the Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor's Office, a warrant was sent to MASAK on September 17, and the examination will determine whether resources were transferred abroad through the executives' relatives. Tanrıkulu, recalling that the Finance Minister knew about the 'abnormal developments' in November 2025, asked for an investigation into political and administrative responsibility.
