Do Stock Index Futures Affect Economic Growth? Evidence from 32 Countries Şendeniz Yüncü, İlkay; Aydoğan, Kürşat (2018-01-26) This article investigates the relationship between stock index futures markets development and economic growth using time-series methods for 32 developed and developing countries. Evidence of cointegration between stock index futures and real economy in 29 countries suggests the presence of co-movements among the variables, indicating long-run stationarity in those countries. Our findings show that there is Granger-causality from stock index futures markets development to economic growth for middle-income c...
Do global risk perceptions influence world oil prices? Sarı, Ramazan; Soytaş, Uğur (2011-05-01) This paper investigates the information transmission mechanism between world oil, gold, silver, dollar/euro exchange rate markets, and volatility index (VIX) accommodating for global risk perceptions. We find that there is a unique long run equilibrium relationship, where gold, silver, exchange rate, and risk perceptions appear as long run forcing variables of world oil prices. We uncover that global risk perceptions have a significantly suppressing effect on oil prices in the long run. We also discover tha...
Do labour market policies reduce the informal economy more effectively than enforcement and deterrence? Saraçoğlu, Dürdane Şirin (Elsevier BV, 2020-05-01) In 2006, Turkish policymakers introduced new measures to reduce informality and encourage formality, in which the primary means of combatting informality were stricter enforcement of existing labor market laws and deterrence through fines, without any appropriate adjustments in formal labour costs. In this paper we show that even without any change in enforcement and deterrence, in an economy growing with capital accumulation like in Turkey, informality gradually and naturally declines. Furthermore, we prop...
Do regional trade agreements actually increase Turkey’s foreign trade? Mavuş Kütük, Merve; Akbostancı Özkazanç, Elif; Department of Economics (2015) Regional trade agreements (RTAs) have important role in Turkey’s foreign trade. Turkey, which has a customs union with the European Union (EU), has to apply the Common Commercial Policy of the EU in line with obligations arisen from the Customs Union Decision. Within this framework, attempts to sign free trade agreements (FTAs) with countries which have a FTA with the EU have been maintained. In the current situation, Turkey has FTAs with 20 countries and Turkey’s foreign trade with the EU members is conduc...
Do regional trade agreements actually increase Turkey’s foreign trade? Mavuş Kütük, Merve; Akbostancı Özkazanç, Elif (Orta Doğu Teknik Üniversitesi (Ankara, Turkey), 2016-4) After the deadlock of World Trade Organization Doha trade negotiations since 2000, trade agreements like Customs Union (CU) and free trade agreements (FTAs) gained further importance in foreign trade. The aim of this study is to analyze the role of regional trade agreements (RTAs) of Turkey in her foreign trade. Effects of the RTAs on Turkey’s foreign trade are analyzed through gravity model in line with the study of Anderson and van Wincoop (2003). The study covers Turkey’s trade flows with 126 trade ...
