With the Turkish government continuing to work with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to complete its £10 billion three-year economic stability programme, four major international companies are on the verge of agreeing a deal to build an oil refinery, providing a further boost for the country's economy. Moreover, the government's continuing promotion of Turkish beachside resorts and inland villages as ideal holiday retreats has contributed to a large increase in overseas visitors to the country. In July of this year Turkey received the International Blue Flag award for its beaches and marinas putting it in the category of "one of the best in the world."
