Effects of growth volatility on economic performance-empirical evidence from Turkey

Effects of monetary policy on the long memory in interest rates: Evidence from an emerging market
(Elsevier, 2013)We study the presence of long memory in a variety of interest rates in Turkey by time-varying generalized Hurst exponent. We reveal that adopting inflation targeting cause a sudden and considerable decrease in the long ... -
Efficiency of the Turkish stock exchange with respect to monetary variables: a cointegration analysis
(Elsevier BV, 1996)In this study, we test the semistrong form of the efficient market hypothesis in Turkey by using the recently developed techniques in time series econometrics, namely unit roots and cointegration. The long run relationship ... -
An Elasticity Approach to the Newsvendor with Price Sensitive Demand

Non-linear pricing by convex duality
