Abstract

In the study, it is investigated the relationship between economic growth, financial development and income inequality in ASEAN-5 (Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines, Singapore, Vietnam) countries for the period between 1992-2014. It is utilized the second-generation tests, which takes into account the cross-sectional dependence. The findings of the analyzes show that economic growth has a positive effect on income inequality in ASEAN-5 countries and the effect of financial development on income inequality is not statistically significant. On the other hand, it is seen that the country specific results are different. According to the results of Dumitrescu-Hurlin causality, it is seen that there is a one-way causality relationship from economic growth to income inequality and financial development. In line with the results of analysis, it is evaluated that bringing the financial structures of ASEAN-5 countries in line with international standards and directing financial resources to areas to be used efficiently can have a positive effect on economic growth and a negative effect on income inequality.

ASEAN-5 ÜLKELERİNDE EKONOMİK BÜYÜME, FİNANSAL GELİŞME VE GELİR EŞİTSİZLİĞİ İLİŞKİSİ

Abstract

Çalışmada, ASEAN-5 (Endonezya, Malezya, Tayland, Filipinler, Singapur, Vietnam) ülkelerinde ekonomik büyüme, finansal gelişme ve gelir eşitsizliği ilişkisi 1992-2014 yılları arasındaki dönem için araştırılmıştır. Çalışmada yatay kesit bağımlılığını dikkate alan ikinci nesil testlerden faydalanılmıştır. Analizler sonucunda elde edilen bulgular ASEAN-5 ülkelerinde ekonomik büyümenin gelir eşitsizliği üzerinde pozitif etkili olduğunu ve finansal gelişmenin gelir eşitsizliği üzerindeki etkisinin istatistiki olarak anlamlı olmadığını göstermektedir. Buna karşılık ülkeler bazında elde edilen sonuçların farklı olduğu görülmektedir. Dumitrescu-Hurlin Nedensellik testi sonuçları incelendiğinde ise, ekonomik büyümeden gelir eşitsizliğine ve finansal gelişmeye tek yönlü nedensellik ilişkisi olduğu görülmektedir. Elde edilen sonuçlar doğrultusunda ASEAN-5 ülkelerinin finansal yapılarının uluslararası standartlara uygun hale getirilmesi ve finansal kaynakların verimli kullanılacak alanlara yöneltilmesinin ekonomik büyüme üzerinde pozitif, gelir eşitsizliği üzerinde ise negatif etki sağlayabileceği değerlendirilmektedir.
