Abstract

This paper provides evidence for the effects of a combination of balance sheet exchange rate exposure and real exchange rate movements on investment. In highly inflationary developing economies like Turkey, firms use the foreign currency denominated assets and debts to defend themselves against inflationary effects and try to benefit from open positions when the currency is undervalued or overvalued. With measuring balance sheet foreign currency exposures for Turkish Industrial firms in the period of 2000-2003, we show that the degree of exchange rate exposure is correlated with financial positions of the firms, but not with size and affiliation with either holdings or banks. Based on the evidence that firm value and investment are endogenous, we find that the firms with negative (positive) balance sheet exchange rate exposure decrease their investment by the depreciation (appreciation) of the value of TL. In addition, we show that there is a positive association of expansion in investment with the firm value.
