Abstract

This study tests the causal relationship between the budget deficit and current account deficit for nine European countries we selected by employing the panel Granger causality analysis developed by Kónya (2006). The econometric method we used in this study takes into account cross section dependence. Panel Granger test results under the cross sectional dependence show that there is a validity of unidirectional causality from budget deficit to current account deficit pointing as twin deficit hypothesis supported by Keynesian view for Austria, Italy, Portugal, and Spain. In the empirical results, we found that there is no relationship between budget

Abstract

Çalışma, bütçe açığı ve cari işlemler dengesi arasındaki ilişkiyi seçilmiş 9 Avrupa Birliği ülkesinde Kónya (2006) tarafından geliştirilen panel Granger nedensellik analizi ile test etmektedir. Analizde kullanılan ekonometrik yöntem yatay kesit bağımlılığını dikkate almaktadır. Yatay kesit bağımlılığı altında panel Granger testi sonuçları, bütçe açıklarından cari işlemler açığına yönelik tek yönlü nedenselliğin varlığını ileri süren İkiz Açık Hipotezi’nin Avusturya, İtalya, Portekiz ve İspanya ekonomileri için geçerli olduğunu göstermektedir. Bütçe ve cari işlemler dengesi arasında nedensel bir ilişkinin olmadığını gösteren Ricardocu yaklaşım ise Belçika, Finlandiya ve Fransa için desteklenmiştir. Sonuçlar, yalnızca İrlanda ekonomisi için cari işlemler dengesi ile bütçe dengesi arasında karşılıklı nedensellik öngörürken, Yunanistan’da cari işlemler dengesinden bütçe dengesine doğru bir nedensellik vardır.
