FINDIK FİYATLARI İLE ŞİRKETLERİN FİNANSAL PERFORMANSI ARASINDAKİ İLİŞKİ VE DÖVİZ KURUNUN BU İLİŞKİ ÜZERİNDEKİ MODERATÖR ETKİSİ

Abstract

Dünya fındık üretiminin büyük çoğunluğu Türkiye’nin Doğu Karadeniz Bölgesinde yapılmaktadır ve bölge ekonomisi için çok önemlidir. Geçmişte fındık taban fiyatlarının belirlenmesinde Fiskobirlik etkili olurken günümüzde fiyatlar rekolteye göre serbest piyasada belirlenmektedir Bu bağlamda fiyatlar her yıl farklıdır. Bu farklı fiyatların firmaların finansal performansını nasıl etkilediği tartışılmaktadır. Bu noktadan hareketle çalışmada fındık fiyatlarının Türkiye’de fındık alanında çalışan firmaların finansal performanslarına etkisi araştırılmaya çalışılmıştır. Çalışmada, İstanbul Sanayi Odası’na ISO kayıtlı en başarılı 1000 firma içinde fındık sektöründe yer alan şirketler analiz edilmiştir.
