About Deniz Sahenk

Deniz Sahenk is the widow of Dogus Holding founder Ayhan Sahenk, who died of a heart attack in 2001. She has no active role in the conglomerate.

Dogus operates in sectors ranging from tourism, real estate and media to financial services, construction, autos and restaurants.

Most of the fortune derives from Garanti Bank. The family sold its remaining 10% of Garanti to Spain's BBVA in 2017, bringing in $900 million.

Deniz's son, Ferit Sahenk, is CEO of Dogus Holding, and her daughter, Filiz Sahenk, manages its fashion and tourism components.

Both Ferit and Filiz are also billionaires.
