The Impact of the Economic Dissatisfaction on the Twin Deficit: Evidence from Turkey

Öz

Macroeconomic development and welfare levels of countries can have some effects on internal and external economic dynamics. This research examines the relationship between the economic dissatisfaction index and twin deficits, based on the assumption that a country's macroeconomic performance can be evaluated by its level of economic dissatisfaction. This study analyzes the relationship between the economic dissatisfaction indices developed by Okun and Barro and the twin deficit variables using data from Turkey for the period 2004-2023. Using wavelet analysis, the study finds that Okun's economic dissatisfaction index has a strong negative correlation with the budget deficit in the short-term and a causal relationship with the current account deficit. In contrast, Barro's economic dissatisfaction index shows long-term relationships with twin deficits. These analyses indicate that the economic dissatisfaction index has significant effects on twin deficits in the Turkish economy, and these effects should be considered by policymakers. The findings emphasize the need for long-term, reliable, and effective policies to ensure economic stability and address macroeconomic imbalances.
