As Turkish economy reopened as of June 1, 2020, increasing world demand compounded by the recent depreciation of the Turkish lira against foreign currencies can create a new opportunity for Turkey to rebalance her economy in the future and pivot to a high-tech, surplus-generating export base by benefiting more from the re-organization of global and regional value chains while mitigating economic impacts of the crisis.

Özet

This paper analyzes the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic on the exports of Turkey. A data set compiled from Turkish Exporters Assembly’s export database is used for our study. The research is based on the applications of selected trade indices such as the sectoral Hirschmann index, sectoral trade concentration ratio, sectoral trade intensity and technological classifications on Turkish sectoral exports during the outbreak. Our results indicate that Turkish sectoral Hirschmann index which amounted to 0.66 between March and May 2019 decreased to 0.62 in the same time frame in 2020 demonstrating that the sectoral exports have broadened the export base, and Turkey currently has a more balanced sectoral export dispersion. Because of the outbreak, the automotive and textiles exports, which can be considered as the engines of Turkish economy, plummeted by 53% and 45% respectively, while the exports of fresh fruits and vegetables increased by 14%. Investigations of trade concentrations and technological intensities of the exports reveal that the shares of high tech and medium-high tech products in the whole export basket decreased and Turkey’s dependence particularly on exports of automotive and textiles plummeted during Covid-19 crisis. Sectoral trade intensity findings infer that some international markets like Ukraine have become more important for selected Turkish exports. As Turkish economy reopened as of June 1, 2020, increasing world demand compounded by the recent depreciation of the Turkish lira against foreign currencies can create a new opportunity for Turkey to rebalance her economy in the future and pivot to a high-tech, surplus-generating export base by benefiting more from the re-organization of global and regional value chains while mitigating economic impacts of the crisis.

Abstract

Bu makale Covid-19 salgınının Türkiye ihracatı üzerindeki etkilerini incelemektedir. Çalışmamızda kullanılan veriler Türkiye İhracatçılar Meclisi ihracat veri tabanından alınmıştır. Araştırmamız sektörel Hirschmann endeksi, sektörel ticari yoğunlaşma oranı, sektörel ticaret yoğunluğu ve ihracatın teknolojik sınıflandırmaları gibi seçilmiş ticaret endekslerinin salgın dönemindeki Türk sektörel ihracatına uygulanmasına dayanmaktadır. Sonuçlarımız, Mart-Mayıs 2019 tarihleri arasında 0,66 olan Türkiye sektörel Hirschmann endeksinin 2020 yılı aynı zaman aralığında 0,62'ye düştüğünü, sektörel ihracatın tabanının genişlediğini ve Türkiye'nin şu anda daha dengeli bir sektörel ihracat dağılımına sahip olduğunu göstermektedir. Salgın nedeniyle, Türk ekonomisinin motoru olarak kabul edilebilecek otomotiv ve tekstil ihracatı sırasıyla %53 ve %45 oranlarında düşerken, taze meyve ve sebze ihracatı %14 artmıştır. İhracatın yoğunlaşma oranı ve teknolojik yoğunluğunun araştırılması sonucunda yüksek teknoloji ve orta-yüksek teknoloji ürünlerinin tüm ihracat sepetindeki paylarının düştüğü ve Türkiye'nin özellikle Covid-19 krizinde otomotiv ve tekstil ihracatına bağımlılığının azaldığı ortaya koyulmuştur. Sektörel ticaret yoğunluğu rakamları, Ukrayna gibi bazı uluslararası pazarların seçilmiş Türk ihracatı için önemlerini arttırdığını göstermektedir. 1 Haziran 2020 itibarıyla yeniden açılan Türkiye ekonomisi, artmakta olan küresel talep ile yakın zamanda Türk lirasının yabancı para birimleri karşısındaki değer kaybıyla birlikte, küresel ve bölgesel değer zincirlerinin yeniden düzenlenmesinden daha fazla yararlanarak krizin ekonomik etkilerini azaltırken, önümüzdeki dönemde dengelenme sürecine girerek ülkenin yüksek teknolojili, katma değer üreten bir ihracat üssüne dönüşmesi için yeni bir fırsat oluşturabilir.
