Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 6Does the Unification of Health Financing Affect the Distribution Pattern of Out-Of Health Expenses in Turkey?(Wiley, 2019-04-07) Çınaroğlu, Songül; Başer, OnurTurkey has implemented health reforms for over a decade and has taken significant steps toward unifying health financing. This study investigated the financial burden associated with out-of-pocket (OOP) expenditures under universal health coverage, using national 2003–2015 household budget data from the Turkish Statistical Institute. Progress was evaluated using Kakwani–Suits indices and Lorenz concentration curves. The results indicate that overall, more than a decade after its unification, redistribution of wealth in the Turkish health financing system has benefitted the wealthy but not the poor. Both curve and index approaches (Kakwani index 2003 = -0.50; 2015 = -0.44) reveal an increasingly regressive pattern of OOP health expenditures. The effective use of fiscal space and good political leadership are essential for the successful continuation of reforms to combat poverty in Turkey.Article Effects of Exchange Rates on Corporate Profits: a Tobit Analysis(2017) Karamollaoğlu, Nazlı; Karamollaoğlu, Prof Dr NazlıBu çalışmada Türk imalat sanayiinde faaliyet gösteren 22 imalat sektörü ve 45.712 firmayı kapsayan bir veri seti kullanarak, reel döviz kuru dalgalanmalarının firma düzeyindeki şirket kazançları üzerindeki etkisi araştırılmaktadır. Tahmin sonuçlarımız döviz kuru değişimlerinin firma düzeyindeki kârlar üzerindeki etkisine istinaden güçlü bir kanıt sunmamaktadır. Çalışmanın sonuçları ayrıca farklı ağırlıklandırma yöntemleriyle hesaplanmış sektörel döviz kuru serilerinin firma karlarına etkilerinin farklılaştığını göstermektedir. Bu durum kullanılan döviz kuru serisinin seçiminin önemini vurgulamaktadır. Buna ek olarak, çalışmada yüksek üretkenlik ve istihdama sahip olan firmalar ile yaşça büyük olan firmaların daha karlı oldukları rapor edilmiştir.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 5Does Credit Composition Matter for Current Account Dynamics? Evidence From Turkey(Taylor & Francis, 2016-06-06) Toraganlı, Nazlı; Ertuğrul, Hasan MuratBased on a dynamic approach using the Kalman filter we depict effects of time-varying interactions between different components of credit stock on the current account in the Turkish Economy for the period 2002Q3–2014Q3.
