Research analyzing the sensitivity of investment to internal funds using panel data has grown considerably in the last decade and most of the studies have provided results that internal funds substantially affect investment. Controlling for measurement errors, significant role of liquidity factors in investment equations are generally interpreted as evidence for liquidity constraints arising from various factors related to imperfect financial markets. In Turkey government securities crowd out private financial instruments and curtail the funds available for investments of firms. Moreover by presenting an attractive alternative, they exert additional pressure on real investments. This study analyzes the extent to which corporate investment in Turkey is sensitive to the availability of internal funds, given the crowding out in financial iiimarkets. Within the framework of three dynamic empirical models, namely an accelerator, an error correction and a «2-theory model, we provide evidence for the insufficiency of financial markets in providing funds for the real sector. The data set for our empirical study is constructed from the published annual financial statements of 196 listed Turkish companies for the years 1992-2000. Our results indicate that availibility of internal funds is a binding constraint for most of the firms, and even for the other firms we cannot conclude that access to financial markets lifts this constraint. Given this general binding nature of insufficient funds in the system, financial market inefficiencies related to informational problems have only a secondary role in firm behavior. The results also confirm a substitution effect of government securities on investment.

The characteristics of financial innovation in developing countries : the case of Turkey
Kılıçaslan, Seda; Cömert, Hasan; Department of Science and Technology Policy Studies (2019)
Financial innovations are one of the important factors affecting the development of financial markets and have attracted more attention in the literature especially after the 1980s. In the existing literature, only a few studies investigate financial innovation processes in developing countries. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the factors influencing the emergence and development processes of financial innovations in Turkey. Thus, it is aimed to fill the gap in the development process of fi...
EFFECTS OF EXCHANGE RATE VOLATILITY AND FIRM-SPECIFIC FEATURES ON THE RATES OF RETURNS OF THE MANUFACTURING FIRMS LISTED IN BORSA İSTANBUL: A CAPM APPROACH
Aslan, Mustafa; Gaygısız Lajunen, Esma; Department of Financial Mathematics (2021-8-04)
This study examines the effects of the exchange rate volatility and the firm-specific features representing the liquidity, profitability, and leverage performance of firms on excess stock returns for the manufacturing firms listed in Borsa İstanbul (BIST) using dynamic panel data model. The exchange rate volatility is modeled by single regime generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (GARCH) models and Markov-switching GARCH (MSGARCH) models. The MSGARCH models show evidence that the evoluti...
Managing financial instability in emerging markets: A Keynesian perspective
Akyüz, Yılmaz (Orta Doğu Teknik Üniversitesi (Ankara, Turkey), 2008-6)
The Keynesian analysis of financial instability as developed by Hyman Minsky provides considerable insights into understanding the nature and dynamics of boom-bust cycles driven by international capital flows in emerging markets. Its main policy conclusion that financial control rather than macroeconomic policy holds the key to financial stability is equally valid. There is, however, need to develop a new approach to financial control and place greater emphasis on managing capital inflows than has hitherto ...
The effects of volatility on growth and financial development through capital market imperfections
Aysan , Ahmet Faruk (Orta Doğu Teknik Üniversitesi (Ankara, Turkey), 2007-6-1)
This paper provides a model to account for the empirical evidence that volatility reduces growth. In the model, greater volatility increases the cost associated with capital market imperfections and induces the financial intermediaries to charge higher interest rates. The model is based on one of overlapping generations with two types of technologies. The more productive technology requires fixed investment in the first period. Individual with income less than the amount of fixed investment may borrow in fi...
Product diversification and profitability a case study: Vestel A.Ş.
Akgül, Banu; Erdil, Erkan; Doğan, Kutsal; Department of Economics (2015)
The aim of this study is to examine the effect of diversification on the profitability of a firm. To this end, Vestel Co. is examined by conducting an econometric analysis with panel data gathered from different departments of the firm. Importance and the most significant contribution of this study to the literature is that it analyzes a single firm in contrast to the studies including lots of firms operating in the same sector; and this allows us to examine the effect of diversification over time, through ...
