Ferit Şahenk

Ferit Şahenk (Turkish pronunciation: [feˈɾit ʃaˈhenk], born 1964) is the chairman of Doğuş Group and one of the richest people in Turkey.

After eight years he moved to the holding company, and beginning in 1998, he has acquired two food retail chains and operated NTV by funding the expansion by selling part of the group's Garanti Bank to the public.

[citation needed] Understanding that top talent is essential to running a diverse group, he also created a recruitment division, Humanitas.

To its banking business, Şahenk added leasing, insurance and cashback reward schemes like those of Discover Card in the United States – financial services still uncommon in Turkey at the time.

On 28 January 2006, Şahenk held a reception during the World Economic Forum meeting in Davos, Switzerland.
