⚡ TL;DR(Too Long; Didn't Read)

By analyzing the period between 2006 and 2019, we clearly show that the monetary policy function of the CBRT changes over time, and using a time-invariant monetary policy rule model would yield misleading results.

📌 3 Key Takeaways

Abstract

In this study, we estimate a time-varying Taylor rule for evaluating the policy reaction function of the Central Bank of the Republic of Turkey (CBRT). Even though the Turkish economy has been continuously evolving in the last 15 years, previous studies that analyze the monetary policy rule of the CBRT mainly use time-invariant monetary policy functions. We propose a flexible two-stage least square regression to deal with both instability and endogeneity problems in the monetary policy functions. By analyzing the period between 2006 and 2019, we clearly show that the monetary policy function of the CBRT changes over time, and using a time-invariant monetary policy rule model would yield misleading results.

Özet

Bu çalışmada, Türkiye Cumhuriyet Merkez Bankası’nın (TCMB) politika fonksiyonunuzamanla değişen bir Taylor kuralı kullanarak değerlendirdik. Türkiye ekonomisi son 15 yıldasürekli değişmesine rağmen, önceki çalışmalar TCMB’nin para politikasını analiz etmek içinzamanla değişmeyen para politikası fonksiyonları kullandıkları görülmektedir. Bu çalışmadapara politikası fonksiyonlarındaki kararsızlık ve içsellik problemlerini çözen iki aşamalı esneken küçük kareler regresyonu geliştirdik. Bu yöntemle 2006 ve 2019 yılları arasındaki periyoduincelediğimizde, TCMB’nin para politika fonksiyonun zaman içerisinde değiştiğini ve zamanladeğişmeyen para politikası kuralı modellerinin doğru olmayan sonuçlar verebileceğini açıkçagösterdik.
