Investing in Turkey Opportunities in Infrastructure and Private Equity
Our Tulin Kiranoglu attended the Conference on “Investing in Turkey Opportunities in Infrastructure and Private Equity” held in London on 28 February 2013. The Speakers rightly pointed out incredible growths in many areas of Turkish economy and discussed investment opportunities in detail. Turkey has been in the process of making significant amendments to its laws effecting foreign investments and investors, in line with the European Law. Therefore, obstacles foreign investors might previously have suffered in terms of banking facilities or legal requirements have more or less been removed by those amendments. As being dual qualified solicitor in Turkey and England and Wales, our Tulin Kiranoglu plays a key role by advising English investors in relation to Turkish law and effects of their investments in their home country and/or vice versa.

Charity Dinner
Aston Bond LLP attended a Charity Dinner to support the enrichment project for Turkish speaking migrant children and their families in Enfield.
“The programme is devoted to educating mothers in how to engage better with their children… Evidence collected in Turkey regarding the MOCEP is convincing that parents can be taught both new skills and additional knowledge related to child rearing, specifically “reflective parenting skills”, and can be helped with their child’s particular developmental issues longitudinally. The challenge here is to see whether the positive results obtained there can be repeated with the Turkish speaking groups in North London.”
Aston Bond LLP recognises their corporate responsibility towards the community whatever background they are coming from.

Why are businesses all around the UK failing?
Comet, Jessops, Blockbusters, HMV…. if these big businesses can fail so can any business, as have Cobbetts Solicitors this morning.
So why are businesses all around the UK failing?
One reason is that customers and clients today have changed how they buy. This is largely due to the internet, our growing preference to start the buying process online and our clients expecting transparency and something different. By not adapting their lead generation process and not understanding what their customers truly wanted and how they prefer to buy today companies like Jessops and HMV quickly lost their market share. Forward thinking, innovative and customer centric competitors took their business from right under their nose.
The second reason is the lack of an effective lead and client generation system that takes prospects from online to offline so that you can convert them into paying customers.
Customers and the new wave of savy clients out there that we need to attract to stay in business have changed how they buy…. so we need to change how we market and sell to them!!

Sunday Trading Laws Temporarily Stopped for Olympics and Paralympics
Under the Sunday Trading Act 1994, shops of more than 280 square metres can open for a maximum of six hours on a Sunday, and only between the hours of 10:00 and 18:00.
However, as of 22 July 2012, the Government have suspended Sunday Trading Laws for the duration of the Olympics and Paralympics. This law received the Royal Assent on 1 May 2012. This change will be in place for eight Sundays until the Paralympics are over on 9 September 2012.
There are many economic benefits that can come from this suspension, because consumers will have the choice to shop for more hours on a Sunday. Keeping shops open longer could help retailers generate more than ten million pounds in increased profits during London 2012. Furthermore, many employees may be happy to have the opportunity to have increased or different hours on a Sunday.
Nevertheless, given the short time before the start of the Olympics, the Government have also temporarily reduced the usual period of notice that employees must give their employers if they wish to not work on a Sunday, from three months to two months.
Business Minister Norman Lamb has indicated earlier this week that this will be a fantastic opportunity to showcase the whole country to the rest of the world and provide a boost for the economy.
The suspension will only apply in England and Wales and will only be a temporary measure.
