This study analyzes the J-curve effect for Turkey’s bilateral trade with her three main trading partners; Germany, USA and Italy, for consumption, capital and intermediate goods. The bounds test is used to test for cointegration among the trade balance, the real bilateral exchange rate, the real domestic income and the real foreign income. The results show that the real exchange rate is not a significant determinant of trade in the short run. In the long run, it is significant only for trade with USA in consumption goods. Moreover, J-curve does not exist for Turkey’s bilateral trade with Germany, USA, and Italy in consumption, capital and intermediate goods. The results support existence of a link between the bilateral trade balances and the real domestic income both in the short run and the long run.

Bank competition and banking system stability: evidence from Turkey
Ak Kocabay, Selvi; Özmen, Erdal; Department of Economics (2009)
This study empirically investigates the validity of the competition and stability trade-off hypothesis for the Turkish banking system. To this end, we consider annual bank level accounting data for the 1990-2008 period and compute the most commonly used measures of banking stability and competition. The effects of macroeconomic factors and bank specific indicators including the ownership structure are also taken into account. The fixed effects panel estimation results suggest that the relation between compe...
