ANALYZING THE NONLINEAR DYNAMICS OF THE TURKISH TEXTILE AND APPAREL INDUSTRIES

Year 2016, Volume: 26 Issue: 4, 345 - 350, 30.12.2016

Abstract

Developments in the Turkish textile and apparel industries carry a high influence on the development of Turkish economy with their substantial shares in the total industrial production. This is the first study that documents the cyclical economic asymmetric behavioral dynamics of the Turkish textile and apparel industries by utilizing the Markov regime switching models to the mean and variance at monthly frequencies by using Expectation Maximization algorithm. The results provide a further detailed insight about the asymmetric dynamics of these sectors by examining nonlinearity, determining the number of regimes, identifying the regime dependent variances, calculating the transition and smoothed probabilities, and documenting the regime classifications with respect to each identified regime. The study also employs the estimated transition probabilities to define and quantify the duration and persistence of staying in each particular regime for each of the sectors. Revealing these results about the Turkish textile and apparel industries gives a better understanding for policy makers in terms of designing effective policies to increase competitiveness in the global markets.

TÜRK TEKSTİL VE KONFEKSİYON SANAYİLERİNİN DOĞRUSAL OLMAYAN DİNAMİKLERİNİN ANALİZİ

Year 2016, Volume: 26 Issue: 4, 345 - 350, 30.12.2016

Abstract

Türk tekstil ve konfeksiyon sanayilerindeki gelişmeler, toplam imalat sanayi üretiminde büyük paylara sahip olmaları nedeniyle Türkiye ekonomisi üzerinde oldukça önemli bir etkiye sahiptir. Bu çalışma, Türk tekstil ve konfeksiyon sektörlerinin döngüsel asimetrik dinamiklarini incelemek üzere beklenti maksimizasyonu algoritması ile ortalama ve varyanstaki değişimlere izin veren Markov rejim değişim modelini kullarak sektörlerin döngüsel hareketlerini aylık frekansta modelleyen ilk çalışmadır. Elde edilen sonuçlar bu sektörlerin asimetrik dinamikleri hakkında detaylı bilgilere sahip olmamızı sağlamaktadır. Çalışmada tekstil ve konfeksiyon sanayileri için en uygun ekonomik modellerin doğrusal olmayan modeller aracılığıyla elde edilebileceği ve incelenebileceği ortaya konulmuş, her bir sektör için optimum rejim sayıları belirlenmiş, farklı rejim durumuna göre hem değişen ortalamalar hem de değişen varyans değerleri tanımlanmış ve her bir rejim için geçiş olasılıkları hesaplanmıştır. Ayrıca, bu sektörlere ait döngüsel hareketler için belirlenen rejimlerin süreleri tespit edilmiş ve sektörlerin aynı karakteristik rejimde kalmaları konusunda ne kadar istikrarlı olduklarını anlamak için geçiş olasılıkları tahmin değerleri hesaplanılmış ve kullanılmıştır. Çalışmadan elde edilen sonuçlar global piyasalarda rekabet gücünü artırmak üzere etkin politikalar tasarlanması açısından Türk tekstil ve konfeksiyon sektör dinamiklerinin değişken yapısına dair politika yapıcılara
daha detaylı ve anlaşılır bilgiler sunmaktadır.
