Renaissance Capital agreed to buy Turkish brokerage Mira Menkul Degerler as it expands across emerging markets.
The acquisition of the Istanbul-based company requires Turkish regulatory approval and should be completed next month, RenCap said in a statement Friday, without providing details of the accord. Burak Akbulut, the Tera Menkul banker RenCap hired in September, will run Renaissance Capital Turkey.
"This acquisition complements the build-out of the firm's emerging markets franchise, and serves as a gateway to the Middle East and North Africa region," Akbulut said.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
