An Analysis of the Dynamic Panel Gravity Model:e E ect of Immigration Flows from Turkey to OECD Countries on Foreign Trade

Öz:

This study analyzes how bilateral trade between Turkey and Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries has been affected by the immigrant flows from Turkey to OECD countries. The main objective is to unveil which channels of foreign trade are affected by immigrant flows from Turkey to OECD countries. Most empirical studies examining the static relationship between international migration and bilateral foreign trade take advantage of panel gravity models. This paper outlines a new approach on using a dynamic panel gravity model to analyze the dynamic relationship between international migration and bilateral foreign trade. This study tests the impact of immigrant flows from Turkey to OECD countries on bilateral foreign trade between countries from 2000-2016 for the first time using the system GMM estimation method. The evidence from this study indicates the relationship between bilateral foreign trade and immigrant flows from Turkey to OECD countries from Turkey to have complementarity. In addition, this study’s findings indicate immigration flows from Turkey to OECD countries to contribute to the exports from immigrants’ host countries and to increase Turkey’s imports. The results show these immigrant flows to be effective by means of networking channels in terms of foreign trade

Bu çalışma, Türkiye ile OECD ülkeleri arasındaki ikili ticaretin Türkiye’den OECD ülkesine giden göçmen akımlarından nasıl etkilendiğini incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Çalışmanın temel hedefi, Türkiye’den 23 OECD ülkesine giden göçmenlerin dış ticareti hangi kanallar ile etkilediğini ortaya koymaktır. Uluslararası göç ve ikili dış ticaret arasındaki statik ilişkiyi incelemek amacıyla uygulamalı analizler yapan çalışmaların büyük bir kısmı, panel çekim modellerinin avantajlarından faydalanmışlardır. Ancak biz uluslararası göç ile ikili dış ticaret arasındaki dinamik ilişkiyi analiz etmek için dinamik panel yerçekimi modelini kullanmayı tercih ettik. Bu manada, literatürde daha önce yapılmamış biçimiyle, 2000-2016 yılları arasında Türkiye’den OECD ülkelerine yaşanan göç akımlarının ülkeler arası ikili dış ticaret üzerindeki etkisi dinamik olarak sistem GMM tahmin yöntemi ile test edilmiştir. Ülkeler arasındaki ikili dış ticaret ilişkisi ve Türkiye’den OECD ülkelerine giden göçmen akımları arasındaki ilişkinin tamamlayıcı nitelikte olduğu sonucuna erişilmiştir. Buna ek olarak, Türkiye’den OECD ülkelerine giden göç akımlarının, göçmenlerin sonradan göç etmiş oldukları ülkelerin ihracatını artırdığı, ihracatına katkı sağladığı, Türkiye’nin ithalatını artırdığı elde edilen sonuçlar arasındadır. Çalışmanın analiz bulguları göstermektedir ki; OECD ülkelerine Türkiye’den giden göçmen akımları, Türkiye ve OECD ülkeleri arasındaki karşılıklı dış ticareti network (bilgi) kanalı ile etkilemektedir
