FINANCIAL DEVELOPMENT AND INVESTMENT AMOUNT NEXUS: A CASE STUDY OF TURKEY

Journal Title: Asian Economic and Financial Review - Year 2016, Vol 6, Issue 3

Abstract

The paper examines the relationship between financial development and investment amount in Turkey over the period of 1998:01-2015:02 by using Toda-Yamamoto method. Banking sector and stock market measures of financial development are used in the econometric analysis. Our findings suggest that there is uni-directional causality from stock market development to investment amount. Moreover, empirical findings present that there is uni-directional causality from investment amount to banking sector development and bi-directional causality between banking sector development and stock market development.
