Overview

While building Borsa MCP, we realized there was no Turkey-specific finance library like yfinance, and Yahoo Finance had incomplete or incorrect data for Turkish markets. We had to build everything from scratch.

So we extracted the data sources from Borsa MCP into a yfinance-like Python library. Introducing borsapy!

Why borsapy?

We believe this will make life much easier for developers working with Turkish financial data. Problems with existing solutions:

Yahoo Finance: Incomplete and incorrect data for Turkish markets
Other APIs: Paid or limited access
Manual solutions: Code that needs to be written from scratch for every project

borsapy solves all these problems, offering an open-source gift to the Turkish developer community.
