The financial system has a vital role in allocating idle resources in the economy, directing them to productive investments and thus economic growth. Increases in the number, use and efficiency of financial institutions and/or instruments in the financial system are explained as financial development, which expresses the growth and change in the structure of the financial system. In this context, in this study, the relationship between financial development and economic growth in Turkey, the ratio of M2 money supply and loans used in the private sector to GDP for the period 2006:Q1-2020:Q3, was investigated GDP per capita data. The analysis was made with the VAR method, and the Johansen cointegration test was applied to determine the long-term relationships. In addition, to see the reaction of the other variables to the shocks to which the variables are exposed, the action-reaction method and the variance decomposition technique were applied. According to the analysis results, there is a significant relationship between the M2 money supply and the loans used by the private sector and per capita national income. In addition, a mutual cause and effect relationship has been reached between the per capita income and the loans given to the private sector from the M2 money supply.
