Abstract
Bu çalışma, ampirik olarak para politikası değişikliklerinin Türk bankalarının kredi arzı üzerindeki etkisini incelemekte ve parasal aktarım mekanizmasının kredi kanalının Türk bankalarının sermaye yeterliliklerinden etkilendiğini göstermektedir. Sermaye kısıtlaması için Sermaye Yeterlilik Rasyosu (SYR) kullanıldığında, sermaye kısıtlaması olmayan bankalar para politikasına daha fazla tepki vermektedirler. Farklı SYR seviyeleri olan bankaların tepkileri de farklıdır. Literatürdeki kredi kanalı hakkındaki karışık sonuçlar, SYR göz önünde bulundurularak açıklanabilir.
This paper empirically analyzes the effect of monetary policy changes on loan supply of Turkish banks and presents the evidence that bank lending channel of monetary policy transmission mechanism is operating through the capital adequacy of Turkish banks. By using the CAR as an indicator of capital constraint we show that banks that do not have capital constraints respond more to monetary policy. Also, banks with different CAR react differently to monetary policy changes. We show that the asymmetric effect of CAR may help to explain the mixed results in the empirical literature about the bank lending channel.
