Abstract

Capital flight is one of the most important problems for developing countries which often lack the necessary financial resources to promote growth and development. In this paper, we aim to evaluate the conceptual and methodological problems related with the definition and measurement of capital flight and summarize the main findings of some of the empirical studies on the determinants of capital flight and its associations with other variables in an attempt to identify the research gaps in the existing literature.

Özet

Sermaye kaçışı büyüme ve kalkınma için çoğu zaman yeterli finansal kaynaklardan yoksun bulunan gelişmekte olan ülkelerin önemli sorunlarından biridir. Bu yazıdaki amacımız, sermaye kaçışının tanımı ve ölçülmesi ile ilgili kavramsal ve metodolojik sorunları değerlendirmek ve sermaye kaçışının sebepleri ve bunun diğer değişkenler ile arasındaki ilişkisi üzerine yapılmış bazı ampirik çalışmaları özetleyerek literatürdeki eksiklikleri belirlemeye çalışmaktır.
