Abstract

While examining realtionship of between in the short run and long run, Gregory-Hansen Cointegration test with structural breaks, the FMOLS and CCR models and the Toda-Yamamoto causality test were used. Recording to results of the analysis, it was found that there was a negative relationship between the private pension funds and the current account deficit in the long run but there was no statistically significant relationship in the short term. In additon, error correction mechanism operates and the short run shocks disappear after a year.

Sözkonusu değişkenler arasındaki kısa ve uzun dönemarasındaki ilişki incelenirken, yapısal kırılmalarıdikkate alan Gregory-Hansen eşbütünleşmeanalizinden, FMOLS ve CCR modellerinden ve TodaYamamotonedensellik testinden yararlanılmıştır.Yapılan analiz sonucunda, uzun dönemde bireyselemeklilik fonları ile cari açık arasında negatif yönlübir ilişki olduğu, bununla birlikte kısa dönemde iseanlamlı bir ilişki olmadığı görülmüştür.
