Istanbul Kültür University adopts transparency and accountability as the core principles of its institutional governance approach and conducts all financial and administrative processes in an open, accessible, and auditable manner. The university’s Accountability and Transparency Policy ensures the effective, efficient, and ethical use of resources while strengthening stakeholder participation and the right to access information in decision-making processes.

Within the scope of this policy, financial data, budget utilization rates, income–expense statements, audit results, and institutional activity reports are published regularly each year and made publicly accessible. This information is shared through the institutional website and annual reports, allowing students, employees, donors, and the general public to access up-to-date information about the university’s financial management processes.
