Macroeconomic policies and structural adjustment under the IMF stabilization program in the Turkish Economy : A computable general equilibrium analysis
Hwang, Won Joo; Güzel, Alper; Department of Economics (2003)
The Turkish economy encountered with the two major economic crises in the 1990s after a series of liberalization policies during the 1980s. Despite of the IMF-supported stabilization program after the 1994 financial crisis, the Turkish economy experienced another serious crisis in the 1999-2000 followed by the IMF-directed stabilization program. This experience of the Turkish economy indicates that the IMF-directed stabilization policies do not necessarily guarantee successful outcomes. This fact emphasizes...
Macroeconomic variables and the housing market in Turkey
Sarı, Ramazan; AYDIN, Bahadir (Informa UK Limited, 2007-09-01)
This paper investigates the relation between housing starts and macroeconomic variables in Turkey from 1961 to 2000. The generalized variance decomposition approach is used to examine relations between housing market activity and prices, interest rates, output, money stock, and employment. In contrast to previous findings for developed countries, our results indicate that the monetary aggregate has a relatively more important and substantial effect on housing investment than does employment. Generally speak...
Macroeconomic announcements and intraday stock market volatility
Yılmaz, Berna Nisa; Danışoğlu, Seza; Department of Financial Mathematics (2017)
This study examines the effects of interest and inflation rate announcements on stock market volatility by using a standard event study methodology. The BIST-30 Index volatility is modelled and forecasted by the multiplicative component GARCH model. This is one of the first studies where the announcement effects are analyzed on the basis of volatility forecasts produced by the multiplicative component GARCH. The announcement effects are observed clearly with the advantage of using high-frequency data. While...
Macroeconomic Policy and Unemployment by Economic Activity: Evidence from Turkey
BERUMENT, MAHMUT HAKAN; DOĞAN, NÜKHET; Tansel, Aysıt (2009-05-01)
This paper investigates how various macroeconomic policy shocks in Turkey affect unemployment and provides evidence on the differential responses of unemployment in selected sectors of economic activity. Our paper extends previous work in two respects. First, we consider not only the response of total unemployment, but also the response of unemployment by selected sectors of economic activity. Second, we consider not only the effect of monetary policy shocks, but also the effects of several other macroecono...
Macroeconomic impact of workers' remittances on output growth: evidence from Turkey
Yaşar, Pınar; Tansel, Aysıt; Department of Economics (2005)
In this study, a demand oriented simultaneous equation macroeconometric model with a dynamic perspective is constructed in order to investigate the impact of workers̕ remittances on output growth via their effects on key macro variables such as private consumption, investment and imports for Turkey. The study covers the period of 1964-2003 on an annual basis. Results of the analysis suggest that workers̕ remittances affect output growth in a positive manner through the multiplier process. It is found that t...
