Abstract

The interaction between financial development and environmental sustainability has become an increasingly important research area, especially in emerging market economies. In this context, the main objective of this study is to contribute to sustainable development policies by analyzing the relationship between financial development and carbon dioxide emissions in Türkiye, which has a dynamic economic structure, with annual data for the period 1988-2023. In the empirical analysis, the ARDL bounds test developed by Pesaran et al. (2001) is used. The results of the analysis reveal the existence of a long-run cointegration relationship between financial development and carbon dioxide emissions. Moreover, the long-run coefficients obtained in the analysis indicate that financial development can be a strategic tool for Türkiye to achieve its sustainable development goals.

Özet

Finansal gelişme ile çevresel sürdürülebilirlik arasındaki etkileşim, özellikle yükselen piyasa ekonomilerinde giderek daha fazla önem kazanan bir araştırma sahasına dönüşmüştür. Bu bağlamda çalışmanın temel amacını, dinamik bir ekonomiye yapıya sahip Türkiye’nin, 1988-2023 dönemine ait yıllık verileriyle finansal gelişme ile karbondioksit emisyonu arasındaki ilişkiyi analiz ederek, sürdürülebilir kalkınma politikalarına katkı sağlamak oluşturmaktadır. Ampirik analizde, Pesaran vd. (2001) tarafından geliştirilen ARDL sınır testi kullanılmıştır. Analiz sonuçları, finansal gelişmişlik ve karbondioksit emisyonları arasında uzun dönemli eşbütünleşme ilişkisinin varlığını ortaya koymaktadır. Ayrıca, analizde elde edilen uzun dönem katsayıları, finansal gelişmişliğin Türkiye’nin sürdürülebilir kalkınma hedeflerine ulaşmasında stratejik bir araç olabileceğini göstermektedir.
