Bu araştırma 1990-2013 döneminde Orta ve Doğu Avrupa Ülkeleri (ODAÜ) ve Türkiye'deki doğrudan yabancı yatırım (DYY) yapısını incelemektedir. Çalışma, ODAÜ ve Türkiye'ye DYY girişlerinin temel belirleyicilerini araştırmakta ve ODAÜ ve Türkiye'deki özelleştirmenin seviye ve yöntemi ve ülke risk düzeyi gibi geçişe-özgü faktörlerin önemini vurgulamaktadır. Bu girişlerin temel belirleyicilerini anlamak için, Türkiye ve ODAÜ arasındaki DYY girişlerinin karşılaştırılması her iki alanda da yapılmaktadır. Son bölüm, ilgili ülkelerdeki son gelişim süreçlerini yansıtmak amacıyla ODAÜ ve Türkiye'deki makroekonomik göstergeleri tartışmaya ayrılmıştır.

Türkiye'deki Doğrudan Yabancı Yatırım: Orta ve Doğu Avrupa Ülkeleri ile Karşılaştırma

This paper examines the pattern of foreign direct investment (FDI) in the Central and Eastern European Countries (CEEC) and Turkey during the 1990-2013 period. The study aims to investigate the basic determinants of FDI inflows into the CEEC and Turkey, and accentuates the importance of transition-specific factors such as the level and method of privatization and the country risk in the CEEC and Turkey. A comparison of FDI inflows to Turkey and the CEEC is carried out in order to understand the main reasons for these inflows in both areas. Finally, a discussion of macroeconomic indicators in the CEEC and Turkey aims at providing a perspective for the developments in these countries.
