As a result of globalization, the removal of barriers to international capital has created a source for countries in need of capital. These capital sources referred to as short-term capital movements or simply portfolio investments, provide significant benefits to the economy when they first enter the country. Investment instruments are instruments used by those who have excess capital in their hands in order to make a profit. The aim of this study is to reveal the cointegration relationships between portfolio investments and investment instruments in Türkiye. The motivation for this study is that there are few studies in the literature that examine cointegration relationships between all investment instruments and portfolio investments. The study comprises quarterly data covering the period from 2009Q1 to 2023Q2. The data has been obtained from the CBRT EVDS system. According to the results of ARDL cointegration analysis; there is a cointegration relationship between the variables both in the short and long run. According to these results, in Türkiye, investment instruments do not significantly affect portfolio investments, but portfolio investments significantly affect investment instruments.

This study examines the causality relationship between portfolio investments and credit default swaps (CDS) in Türkiye. Analysing the dynamics between portfolio investments and CDS premiums, two important variables for financial markets is critical to understanding how risk perception and investment decisions are affected. While portfolio investments are generally considered an indicator of the confidence of foreign investors in the country's economy, CDS premiums are an important risk measure that reflects the country's debt risk and the risk perception of market participants. In this context, examining the relationships between the two variables contributes to the understanding of the effects of investor behavior and risk perception on macroeconomic indicators in financial markets. In the study, the Granger causality test was applied using data from the period 2014Q1-2024Q1. The results obtained show that CDS premiums have a significant and unidirectional causal effect on portfolio investments. Increases in CDS premiums increase investors' risk perception and lead to a decrease in portfolio investments. On the other hand, no causal effect of portfolio investments on CDS premiums was found. These findings emphasize the importance of risk management in terms of portfolio investments in Türkiye and reveal that CDS premiums play a role in investor decisions.

This study aims to analyse the relationship between foreign direct investments (FDI) and portfolio investments (PI) and interest rates. Firstly, ADF and PP unit root tests were applied to determine whether the variables were stationary or not. Since the series became stationary at different levels, the ARDL (Autoregressive Distributed Lag Bound Test) test, one of the cointegration tests, was applied. Afterward, Toda-Yamamoto tests were utilized to determine whether there is causality between the variables and if there is a causality relationship, to determine its directions. According to the ARDL bound test results, it is concluded that there is no short-term asymmetric relationship between PI and other independent variables. In other words, there is no statistically significant relationship between PI and EUR, USD and TL interest rates. On the other hand, it is concluded that the FDI dependent variable and other independent variables are long-run cointegrated in the relevant period. According to the results of the Toda-Yamamoto causality test where FDI and TL, EUR, and USD are independent variables, it is concluded that there is a Granger causality relationship between FDI and TL and EUR interest rates.

Bu çalışmada amaç ABD’de hesaplanan ve korku endeksi olarak da bilinen VIX endeksinin Türkiye için portföy yatırımları ve döviz kurları üzerinde etkili olup olmadığını tespit etmektir. Bu amacı gerçekleştirmek için 2004:1-2019:4 dönemi üçer aylık verilerle değişkenler arasındaki eşbütünleşme ilişkisinin tespiti için ARDL Sınır testi yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgularda VIX endeksi ile döviz kurları arasında herhangi bir eşbütünleşme ilişkisine rastlanmamıştır. VIX endeksi ile Türkiye’ye yapılan portföy yatırımları değişkenleri arasında eşbütünleşme ilişkisi olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Kısa ve uzun dönem katsayıları incelendiğinde ise kısa dönemde değişkenler arasında anlamlı ve pozitif bir ilişkinin olduğu ancak uzun dönemde anlamlı bir ilişkinin olmadığı görülmektedir. ABD finansal piyasaları verileri yardımıyla hazırlanan VIX endeksi ile diğer ülke finansal piyasaları arasında ilişki bulunması, küreselleşme olgusunun ve onun getirdiği mali (finansal) entegrasyonun bir sonucu olduğu söylenebilir. Bu durum da politika yapıcılar ve uluslararası yatırımcılar açısından VIX endeksinin önemini ve takip edilmesi gereken önemli bir değişken olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır.

Portföy yatırımları, ödemeler bilançosu dengesinde sermaye hesabı altında bulunan doğrudan yabancı sermaye yatırımları ve kredilerle birlikte üçüncü bir kalem olan ve içerisinde tahvilleri ve hisse senetlerini ihtiva eden dolaylı yabancı sermaye yatırımlarıdır. Diğer kalem olan doğrudan yabancı sermaye yatırımları ülkeye dışarıdan yapılan reel yatırımları ifade ederken portföy yatırımları, ülkenin kıymetli kağıtlarına yapılan finansal yatırımları ifade etmektedir. Bu kıymetli kağıtlar karşılığında ülkeye sıcak para girişi yaşanmakta, vadesinin gelmesi veya diğer nedenlerle bu para, faizi veya karı ile birlikte ülke dışına çıkmaktadır. İstihdam artışı gerçekleştirmeden yüksek büyüme rakamlarına ulaşan gelişmekte olan ülkelerde bu büyümenin kaynağının dışarıdan ülkeye giren finansal varlıklar olduğu ve bunun sürdürülebilirliğinin olmadığı kanaati hakimdir. Yapılan bu çalışmada portföy yatırımlarının büyümeye etkisi, 2001-2018 dönemi için 23 OECD ülkesi üzerine yapılan panel veri analizi ile test edilmiştir. Analiz sonucunda Driscoll-Kraay tahmincisi ile yapılan regresyon analizi sonucunda portföy yatırımlarındaki artışın ekonomik büyümeyi kısa dönemde pozitif yönde etkilediği ancak değişkenlerin eşbütünleşik olmadıkları yani uzun dönem ilişkilerinin olmadığı tespit edilmiştir. Analiz sonucu portföy yatırımlarının kısa dönemde büyümeyi pozitif etkilediği ancak uzun dönemde sürdürülebilir olmadığı kanaatini doğrulamaktadır.

The purpose of this study; To examine the impact of econometric capital flows and external debt growth of Turkey for the period 1986- 2018. One of the most important problems of the developing countries like Turkey is the lack of the resources needed to grow domestic savings and capital accumulation. Employment becomes an important problem, especially if sufficient resources are not available to ensure development and growth. Therefore, developing countries have to grow at certain rates. The resources required for development can be solved by borrowing foreign debt, attracting foreign direct investments to the country and foreign portfolio investments. As investment expenditures are made to increase production, the level of employment increases, capital accumulation expands and consequently national income increases. External debt is also seen as an important source for developing countries. However, the important point here is the level of foreign debt and the purpose of this debt. Because, excessive external borrowing affects growth negatively. In the analyzes, the stationarity of the variables was first analyzed with the unit root test Lee-Strazicich (2003). Afterwards, Maki (2012) analyzed whether there is a long-run relationship between capital movements and external debt and growth. Finally, Stock and Watson (1993) estimated the long-term coefficients with DOLS. According to the analysis findings, it was determined that capital movements, external debt and growth, act together in the long term. According to the long-term coefficient estimator results, it was found that direct investments positively affect economic growth, portfolio investments negatively affect economic growth. On the other hand, the effect of foreign debts on economic growth up to the threshold value (52%) was positively affected, however, if this threshold was exceeded, it was found to affect growth negatively.

Most of the world's economies (both developing and developing countries) need international capital (external financing) for new investments. Especially developing countries have to make new investments in order to ensure the continuation of the economic growth process and to ensure their development. However, both the macro economic growth and the national savings required to realize the development moves may be inadequate for the new investments expected in the economic growth process. Therefore, foreign savings (international capital) are needed. As a result, investments should be increased in order to increase the national income, employment and welfare of the country. In order to achieve this, they have to move towards foreign savings instead of financial resources that are insufficient within the country. This source is naturally in the form of foreign borrowing, often called foreign capital. These developed and rich countries or, in other words, countries that have a surplus of savings, want to return to their idle funds and to maintain the real value of their wealth. Turkey's economy because it is an economy that is among the countries with negative savings needs foreign savings. In this study; Turkey's economy in the process that took place after the 2008 world economic crisis, in terms of macroeconomic variables will affect Turkey on foreign capital sources, created in the economy.

The economies with savings deficit and capital accumulation shortage implemented policies for financial liberalization under the influence of neoliberal policies. Therefore, foreign capital restrictions removed in order to increase foreign capital volumes. Similarly, since the 1990s, Turkey has also liberalized the foreign capital inflow towards financial liberalization. But, the reasons like financial structure, macroeconomic instability and political turmoil increased the Turkey's crisis trend and thus Turkey experienced severe crisis due to the effect of sudden stops in capital movements. In addition, the positive contributions of any foreign capital inflow to economies cannot be ignored. In this study, the effects of short - term capital movements and reel exchange rate on economic growth are examined both theoretically and empirically. The industrial production index as a proxş for economic growth, real effective exchange rate based on Producer Price Index and portfolio investment as indicators of short-term capital movements were used as variables for the period of January 2005-January 2018. The relationship between variables was analyzed by ARDL, FMOLS, DOLS and Markov Switching models. According to the results, while real exchange rate had a negative impact on industrial production, portfolio investments did not have a significant effect on industrial production.

After the announcement of Fed to reduce the bond purchases on 22 May 2013, there seem some fluctuations in the money and capital markets in some of the developing countries. These countries had common features such as high current account deficits, high inflation rate, and the depreciation of the national currency, high interest rates and low growth rates. In a study conducted in August 2013, these countries are called Fragile Five (Brazil, India, Indonesia, Turkey, and South Africa -BIITS). In this study, we try to estimate the relationship between economic growth and portfolio investments in Fragile Five countries using panel regression analysis. The end of the estimation shows that the stocks have a linear positive effect on the GDP, and there is no relation between the GDP and the bonds. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
