Mali Disiplin Sürecinde İkiz Açıklar Hipotezinin Geçerliliğinin Analizi: Türkiye Örneği

Bu araştırmada, Türkiye ekonomisinde bütçe açığı ve cari işlemler arasındaki ilişki, eşbütünleşme analizi ve Granger nedensellik testi kullanılarak, 2002-2014 dönemi için analiz edilmektedir. Keynesyen yaklaşım, bütçe açıklarındaki bir artışın cari işlemler açığına yol açacağını ileri sürmektedir. Bütçe açıkları ve cari işlemler arasındaki bu pozitif ilişki, literatürde "ikiz açık" hipotezi olarak bilinmektedir. Ancak, Ricardocu Denklik Hipotezi bütçe açığındaki değişmelerin cari işlemler dengesini etkilemediğini savunmaktadır. Araştırmada ikiz açık hipotezinin geçerliliğini kanıtlayan bir bulguya ulaşılamamaktadır. Sonuçlar, Türkiye ekonomisinde cari işlemler açığının bütçe dengesi üzerinde etkili olduğunu göstermektedir.

Analysis of the Validity of the Twin Deficits Hypothesis in Fiscal Discipline Process: The Case of Turkey

In this study, the relationship between budget deficits and current account deficits in the Turkish economy for the period from 2002-2014 is examined by using cointegration analysis and Granger causality test. The Keynesian approach argues that a rise in the budget deficit will cause a current account deficit. This positive correlation between budget deficit and current account is known as the "twin deficits" hypothesis in the literature. However, the Ricardian equivalence hypothesis argues that shifts in budget deficits do not affect the current account balance. In the study, no evidence supporting the validity of the twin deficits hypothesis was obtained. The results indicate that current account deficits have an impact on the budget balance in the Turkish economy.
