The aim of the congress was to make discussions about economic and financial plots, to take precautions about national economic progress of Turkey. In this congress occupational groups and experts presented their opinions to achieve this progress faster. In the agenda of the congress there were three main items: economic statism, foreign trade regime and tax reform. The congress was not welcomed warmly by the current government because economic policy followed by current government until 1923 was questioned. However, it was supported by opposition party, Democrat Party. At the annual meeting which was held at 22th of November at Taksim Municipal Casino and continued for 6 days, annual meetings were held in the mornings and commission meetings were held in the afternoons. After the meetings, reports of economic statism and foreign trade regime were accepted with consensus. Despite the consensus, an arrangement could not be made at the tax commission report. President suggested to resend the report to the commission because it was not clear enough. After this suggestion voted and accepted, president closed the congress.
