State-aids aiming at fostering industrialization and supporting regional
development are being allowed in the European Union (EU) provided that they are
compatible with the regulations. Despite that the aid discriminating between
entrepreneurs and affecting the foreign trade is not being allowed in principle, there
are substantial aids, based on some certain principals, to some enterprises, particularly
the ones in relatively backward regions. Similar regulations such as "Priority Regions
for Development" have been designed also in Turkey, as a country expecting a date for
the EU membership in the near future. However those regulations have been altered
quite often not necessarily for the primary aim, but particularly for the political rent
expectations. Thus there have been some deviations in regulations, and failure in
practice particularly in term of reducing regional income gaps. Despite that it is not a
precondition for the adjustment procedure of Turkey to the EU, the revision of the
regional development policy to set certain principals for state-aids will both ease to get
the expected benefit and will also be helpful in adjusting to the fiscal rules of the Union
in a possible membership period.
