Abstract

Turkish Abstract: Şüphesiz, petrol fiyatı gelişmekte olan petrol ihracatçı ülkelerin makroekonomik performansında büyük rol oynamaktadır. Bu bağlamda, döviz kuru, petrol fiyat dinamikleri temelinde bu ülkelerin araştırması gereken temel makroekonomik göstergelerden biridir. Çalışmamızın amacı, petrol fiyatının eski Sovyetler Birliği'nin petrol ihraç eden ülkelerinin döviz kuru üzerindeki etkisini incelemektir: Azerbaycan, Kazakistan ve Rusya ve elde edilen bulgulara dayanarak politika önerileri verilmiştir. Yirmi yıl boyunca, bu seçilmiş ülkelerin döviz kuru, petrol fiyatı, net yabancı varlıkları ve Balassa-Samuelson etkisine ilişkin yirmi yıllık verilere eş bütünleşme ve hata düzeltme yöntemini uygulanarak hesaplanılmıştır.. Araştirmada şu sorularına cevap vermeye çalışılmıştir: (a) Petrol fiyatı ile döviz kuru arasında uzun vadeli bir ilişki var mı? (b) Petrol fiyat dinamiğinin kısa vadede döviz kuru dalgalanmalarını etkileyip etkilemediği; (c) Kısa süreli dalgalanmalardan uzun dönemli denge yoluna doğru ayarlanma hızının büyüklüğü nedir? İlk sonuçlarımız, petrol fiyatının, ülkelerdeki teorik tahminler ve önceki çalışmalarla tutarlı olan döviz kuru hareketlerinin sürücülerinden biri olduğunu göstermektedir. Çalışmanın sonuçları, seçilen ülkelerdeki döviz kuru hareketlerinin anlaşılmasında yardımcı olmaktadır ve bu nedenle, özellikle son dönemde dünya piyasalarındaki petrol fiyatlarındaki yavaşlama ve söz konusu ülkelerdeki döviz kuru devalüasyonları açısından yararlı politika etkilerine sahiptir.

English Abstract: Undoubtedly, oil price plays a great role in the macroeconomic performance of the oil-exporting developing countries. In this regard, exchange rate is one of the key macroeconomic indicators of these countries to investigate in the backdrop of oil price dynamics. The aim of our study is to examine the impact of the oil price on the exchange rate of oil-exporting countries of the former Soviet Union: Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan and Russia and to make policy suggestions based on the obtained findings. We apply co-integration and error correction method to the about two decades’ data of the exchange rate, oil price, net foreign assets and Balassa-Samuelson effect of these selected countries. We try to answer the research questions of: (a) Is there a long-run relationship between the oil price and exchange rate; (b) Whether oil price dynamics influences the exchange rate fluctuations in the short-run; (c) What is the magnitude of speed of adjustment from the shortrun fluctuations towards long-run equilibrium path. Our preliminary results show that oil price is one of the drives of exchange rate of movements in the countries, which is consistent with theoretical predictions and prior studies. Results of the study are helpful in understanding exchange rate movements in the selected countries and therefore, have useful policy implications especially for the recent period of oil price slowdown in world markets and exchange rates devaluations in the mentioned countries.
