FİNANSAL YENİLİK BRICST ÜLKELERİNDE EKONOMİK BÜYÜMEYİ ARTIRIYOR MU?

Abstract

Finansal yeniliklerin sunduğu yeni ürün, hizmet ve kurumsal düzenlemeler aracılığıyla kaynak tahsisi etkinliğini artırarak ekonomik faaliyeti canlandırması beklenmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, 2008–2022 döneminde finansal yeniliğin ekonomik büyüme üzerindeki etkisini BRICST ülkeleri için analiz etmektir. Driscoll–Kraay standart hata tahmincisiyle elde edilen bulgular, finansal yenilikteki gelişmelerin ekonomik büyümeyi olumlu yönde etkilediğini ortaya koymaktadır. Bu çerçevede, BRICST ülkelerinde finansal sistemlerin yenilikçi yapılarla güçlendirilmesi ve finansal yeniliği teşvik edici politikaların hayata geçirilmesi ekonomik büyümenin sürdürülebilirliği açısından kritik bir unsur olarak değerlendirilebilir.

DOES FINANCIAL INNOVATION BOOST ECONOMIC GROWTH IN BRICST COUNTRIES?

Abstract

Financial innovations are expected to stimulate economic activity by improving the efficiency of resource allocation through new products, services, and institutions. The study aims to analyse the impact of financial innovation on economic growth for BRICST countries over the period 2008–2022. The results derived using the Driscoll–Kraay indicate that advancements in financial innovation have a positive impact on economic growth. In this framework, strengthening financial systems with innovative structures and implementing policies that encourage financial innovation in BRICST countries can be considered as a crucial component for the sustainability of economic growth.
