Abstract

In this paper, it is sought out to what extent the financial transfers from central government to municipalities and municipal revenues have an effect on the expenditures of municipalities in Turkey. In order to reach the aim, the overall position of the own-revenues, the financial transfers and the expenditures of the municipalities initially presented. Subsequent to this presentation, multiple regression analysis is carried out by using the related data. As a result of the analysis, the existence of the postulate known as flypaper effect in the literature is observed. The reason of this postulate is tried to be explained by the problem of financial autonomy. The other finding in this paper is that the increase in financial transfers indirectly leads to increase in the municipal borrowing amounts

Özet

Bu çalışmada, Türkiye'de merkezi yönetimden belediyelere verilen mali transferlerin ve mali transferler dışında kalan diğer (öz) gelirlerin belediyelerin harcamaları üzerinde ne ölçüde etkilerinin olduğu araştırılmıştır. Bu amaçla öncelikle belediyelerin öz gelir, mali transfer ve harcamalarının durumu ortaya konmuş ve ardından söz konusu veriler kullanılarak çoklu regresyon analizi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Analiz sonucunda, literatürde flypaper effect olarak adlandırılan ilgili önermenin varlığı belirlenmiş olup, bu önermenin nedeni mali özerklik sorunuyla açıklanmaya çalışılmıştır. Ulaşılan diğer bir sonuç da, mali transferlerinin artışının belediyelerin borçlanma miktarının artışına da dolaylı olarak neden olduğudur
