Effect of Central Bank Autonomy on Macroeconomic Indicators: The Case of Turkey (1990-2018)
Öz
Central banks are the most important institutions that enable countries to implement monetary policy. Central bank autonomy is defined as keeping away from the pressures of the government while making and performing decisions on monetary policy. Existence of developed financial markets and being focused on price stability by monetary policy are among the essential conditions in terms of central bank autonomy. Monetary and fiscal policies should be determined and implemented so as to provide economic stability. Accordingly, it was aimed in this study to scrutinize the effects of autonomy of Central Bank of Turkey (CBT) on macroeconomic variables for the period of 1990-2018. It is concluded when the obtained data are analyzed that there occurs a positive impact by the guarantee of both legal and actual autonomy of CBT.
