Abstract

The response of countries’export volumes to exchange rate volatility has become one of the most important and the basic subjects of open economies with the globalization of world economy. In this context, questions such as through which transmission mechanism channels, to what extend and in what direction that the exchange rate volatility will affect exports have become increasingly important and attracted more attention of the researchers. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the relationship between exchange rate uncertainty and exports in the period starting with February 2001 when Turkey has switched to the floating exchange rate system. To this end, the relationship has been examined through using quarterly data of the term between 2001:Q2 and 2011:Q3. In order to search the direction and size of the association between analyzed variables, Johansen cointegration and error correction model have been employed. The empirical findings of the study reveal that for the period covered while the exchange rate uncertainty affect export volume negatively in long run, it doesn’t have any kind of impacts in the short run.

Özet

Ülkelerin ihracat hacimlerinin döviz kurlarındaki değişimlere olan tepkileri dünya ekonomisinin küreselleşmesiyle birlikte dışa açık ekonomilerin en önemli ve temel konularından birisi halini almıştır. Bu bağlamda döviz kuru değişkenliğinin ihracatı hangi aktarım mekanizması kanallarıyla, ne yönde ve ne ölçüde etkileyeceği gibi sorular giderek daha fazla önem kazanmış ve araştırmacıların daha çok ilgisini çekmeye başlamıştır. Bu çalışmada Türkiye’de dalgalı kur sisteminin uygulanmaya başlanıldığı Şubat 2001 sonrası dönemde ortaya çıkan döviz kuru belirsizliği ile ihracat arasındaki ilişkinin ortaya konulması amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda ilişki 2001:Q2 ile 2011:Q3 dönemi arasında üç aylık veriler kullanılarak araştırılmıştır. Ele alınan değişkenler arasındaki ilişkinin yönü ve büyüklüğünü araştırmak üzere Johansen eşbütünleşme ve hata düzeltme modeli uygulanmıştır. Elde edilen ampirik sonuçlara göre, inceleme dönemi için döviz kuru belirsizliği uzun dönemde ihracat hacmini negatif etkilerken kısa dönemde ise böyle bir etkiye sahip olmadığı görülmüştür.
