STORYLINE:
Turkey's lira accelerated its downward spiral on Wednesday after Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan reaffirmed on Monday his pledge to further cut interest rates and ease borrowing.
One dollar was traded at 17.15 Turkish liras at 13:05 local time (10:05 GMT), losing 2.5 percent of its value in a single day, bringing its total losses to almost 100 percent compared with a year ago.
Erdogan has been focusing on a low-interest policy to increase exports and production for a stabilized Turkish currency.
