REFILE-Turkish shares hit all-time high after reforms pass

ISTANBUL, Sept 13 (Reuters) - Turkish shares hit a fresh all-time high on Monday, rising 2.14 percent to 61,905 points after Turkey gave its support to government-backed reforms in a referendum, in a boost for the ruling AK Party.

Invetors welcomed a much higher-than-expected 'yes' vote of 58 percent as signalling a strong chance of Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan winning an election due next year outright.
