Akbas, Yusuf Ekrem; Senturk, Mehmet; Sancar, Canon
The present paper analyzed the relationship between current account deficit and capital flows in Turkey over the period from 1990-2011. Augmented Dickey Fuller and Dickey Fuller-Generalized Least Squares unit root tests were used to analyze the stability of current deficit (CA) and capital flows (CF) series. Then, autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) bound test was used in order to check if there is cointegration between the series according to the results obtained from the ARDL test. To conclude, the study revealed that is a cointegration relationship between current deficit and capital flows in Turkey.

In this study, it was analysed if there is a short and long term relationship among the current deficit, short-term capital movements and the economic growth within the periods of 1998Q1-2011Q4 in Turkey. It was used to Autoregressive Distributed Lag model for analyzing the series. As a result of the Autoregressive Distributed Lag model test, it was confirmed the co-integration relationship among the series related to current deficit, economic growth and short term capital flows in short term and long term.

In this study, countries were analyzed between 1990 and 2011 in order to determine whether a causal relationship exists among current account deficit, GDP, foreign direct investment, and total credits of G7. Analysis took into account the cross-sectional dependence and was applied to test the causality among the variables form the panel. Firstly, panel unit root tests were used for determining stationary of variables. As a result of the panel unit root tests, it was found that GDP and foreign direct investment have a stationary structure and that total credits and current account deficit contain unit root. In order to see whether there is a long-term relationship among the variables or not, the panel co-integration test was used. As a result of the test, it was concluded that there is a co-integration relationship among the series. The possibility of a causal relationship was analyzed among the variables using the causality test developed by Elena Ivona Dumitrescu and Christophe Hurlin (2012). Results of the analysis showed a unidirectional causal relationship from current account deficit and foreign direct investment to GDP. Bidirectional causality was found between current account deficit and total credits. Finally, a unidirectional relationship was found from foreign direct investment to current account deficit and total credits.
