According to press reports, Nebati gave briefings to businesspeople about how to improve investment and production in order to address the current economic crisis.
According to NTV, the new minister also took into consideration the needs of business people.
Since the start of the year, the Turkish lira’s value has dropped more than 45% against the US Dollar.
The losses have increased in the past three months due to consecutive rate cuts by the central bank.
The depreciation of the lira has led to price hikes of almost every item including the basic necessities, with the annual inflation rate hitting as high as 21.31 per cent in November.
Last week, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan appointed Nebati as the Treasury and Finance Minister after his predecessor Lutfi Elvan resigned amid a sharp plunge of the currency.
