DE‹K AND TA‹K.............................................................................................................151 I. COUNTRY PROFILE: INTRODUCING TURKEY 1.1 HISTORY, GEOGRAPHY, POPULATION AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTS Turkey is a dynamic, strategically located country in the Eurasian region with a young population and a robust economy, often described as the "China of Europe." It is a nation steeped in rich history and cultural life; a realm of sprawling cities and vast rural areas; of coastal towns and tiny fishing communities. It is mountainous nation with mist-hidden plateaus, combined with enormous steppes and fertile river valleys. Sixty percent of the country is located at altitudes of 3,300 feet above sea level or higher. Located in eastern Turkey, Mount A¤r› at 16,976 feet is the nation's highest peak and the biblical resting grounds of Noah's Ark. More than 99 percent of Turkey's population is Muslim, but the nation is a secular state with a definite western perspective. Christian and Jewish communities also exist in the big cities like Istanbul, Izmir and Adana. Conservative Sunni Muslims make up the large majority of the country's Muslim population. But about a sixth of Turkey's population is Alevi, an Anatolian offshoot of the Shiite branch of Islam. TWO CONTINENTS Located on two continents -- Europe and Asia -- Turkey has always served as a bridge between the Occident and Orient. The Silk Road, the traditional trade passage connecting Europe to China, began in the ancient cities of what is now western Turkey. Eight countries border Turkey: Bulgaria in the northwest, Greece in the west, Georgia in the northeast, Armenia, Azerbaijan and Iran in the east, Iraq and Syria in the southeast Turkey is the third biggest nation in Europe in terms of territory after Russia and Kazakhstan--- nearly twice the size of the state of California. Three percent of Turkey lies in Europe. Known as Thrace, European Turkey forms the southeastern tip of the Balkans. Ninety-seven percent of Turkey is located in Asia and is known as Anatolia. A bulging peninsula, Anatolia is surrounded by the Black Sea, the Bosphorus, the Sea of Marmara, the Dardanelles, the Aegean and the Mediterranean and has been home to many civilizations, including the Hittites, and the Carian, Lydian and Phrygian empires. Anatolia served as the granary of the Roman and Byzantine Empires. Its loss to the Turks in the 11th century deprived the Byzantine Empire of its agricultural wealth and led to its eventual demise. 4 Turkey Brief: Turkish - U.S. Relations Turkey is a key member of NATO and has the second biggest standing army in Europe after Russia. It is a member of the United Nations, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development and other international bodies. THE FARMING NATION Turkey is a huge agricultural country, one of the few nations in the world still largely self-sufficient in food production. It is the world's biggest producer and exporter of hazelnuts, figs and pulses. It also turns out large surpluses of wheat, tobacco, cotton, barley, oats, sugar beets, fresh fruit and vegetables. Wide use of fertilizers and farm tractors since the 1950s has led to a green revolution. An ambitious $30 billion dams and irrigation project on the Euphrates and Tigris Rivers is expected to turn the neglected region of Southeastern Turkey into a Middle East breadbasket and provide badly needed electricity. The undertaking is simply known as GAP and calls for the construction of 15 dams, 18 hydroelectric plans and hundreds of miles of irrigation tunnels and canals. Officials predict the project will produce $6 billion in food surplus annually in the next decade - most of it for exports to arid the Middle East. The country is endowed with rich mineral resources. It is the world's largest producer and exporter of chromites, meerschaum and boron. It also produces large quantities of metals, and minerals such as aluminum, lignite coal, copper, iron ore and turns out sufficient amounts of sulfur, manganese and lead for exports. YOUNG PEOPLE Turkey is a nation of young people. More than half of its population is under the age 25. The country's population has grown from 13.6 million in 1927 to over 75 million in 2008. By the end of 2013, Turkey is expected to have 79 million inhabitants. It already has the third largest population in Europe after Russia and Germany and is expected to surpass Germany in the next 8 years. About 150 million ethnic Turks live outside Turkey, primarily the Balkans, and the former Soviet Caucasus and Central Asia, Iran, China, Cyprus, Iraq and Syria. Nearly 3.5 million expatriate Turkish nationals work and live in the European Community. Turkish nationals make up about 3 percent of Germany's population. Since World War II, millions of peasants from the countryside seeking work opportunities and higher living standards have migrated to the cities. About 70 percent of Turkey's population lives in cities today, compared to only 25 percent in 1950. By the year 2015, 75 percent of Turkey's projected 80 million will be living in urban areas. Some 17.8 percent of Turkey's population already lives in Istanbul - a nightmare scenario for the city's urban planners. Turkey Brief: Turkish - U.S. Relations 5 The shift in population from rural areas to the cities in the past five decades has financially overstretched government resources, compelling state planners to find ways to create millions of new urban jobs and invest billions of dollars in new housing projects, infrastructure, health services and schools and universities in the metropolitan areas of the country. ATATÜRK’S REFORMS Turkey was proclaimed a republic in 1923, emerging from the ruins of the Ottoman Empire which ruled the Middle East, North Africa, the Balkans and parts of Eastern Europe for over 450 years. The Ottoman Empire crumbled after its disastrous World War One defeat as an ally of the Central Powers. From 1923 to 1938, Kemal Atatürk, the founder and first president of the Turkish Republic, carried out sweeping reforms that transformed the country from a backward, feudal state to a progressive nation with a western outlook. The Sultanate was abolished. Atatürk replaced the Shariah, or Islamic holy law, with civilian, trade and criminal codes adopted from Switzerland, Italy and

    COMPARATIVE DYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF COMMERCIAL BANKS’ BEHAVIORAL PATTERNS IN RUSSIA AND TURKEY Fuad Aleskerov a,b*, Veronika Belousova c, Hasan Ersel d, Alexander Ovcharov c, Esra Ozgur e, Maria Serdyuk c, Vasily Solodkov c,f a Department of Mathematics, State University – Higher School of Economics (SU-HSE), 20, Myasnitskaya street, Moscow, 101000, Russia, [email protected] b Russian Academy of Science, Institute of Control Science, Moscow, Russia c SU-HSE, Moscow, Russia d Sabanci University, Istanbul,Turkey e Economic Research Department, Isbank, Istanbul, Turkey f Banking Institute,Moscow, Russia Abstract: The paper presents a pattern behavioral analysis of Russian commercial banks and Turkish deposit banks during a four-years period: from the second quarter 2004 to the second quarter 2008. Banks’ performance indicators are analyzed. Structural similarities of banks’ development are examined. A cluster analysis is applied to determine banks with the similar structure of operations. This analysis allows to estimate how the structure of the Russian banking sector in comparison with the Turkish one has been changing over time. In particular, it allows to identify prevailing behavioral patterns of Russian commercial banks and Turkish deposit banks and to analyze stability of banks’ position in a particular pattern in a country. JEL classification: C61, G21, O16 Keywords: Bank, dynamic pattern analysis, cluster analysis. * Corresponding author 1 1. INTRODUCTION The bank operations are very significant in order to make the economy generally operate properly. The services such as the provision of safe deposit facilities for money, the provision of credit and the provision of efficient money transmission services, i.e., the uninterrupted provision of payment facilities are essential and important for continuity of banking services to the economy.

  • Sampling Algorithm of Order Statistics for Conditional Lifetime Distributions
    Probabilistic Prediction of Bank Failures with Financial Ratios: An Empirical Study on Turkish Banks Gamze Özel Department of Statistics Hacettepe University Turkey [email protected] Nihal Ata Tutkun Department of Statistics Hacettepe University Turkey [email protected] Abstract Banking risk management has become more important during the last 20 years in response to a worldwide increase in the number of bank failures. Turkey has experienced a series of economic and financial crisis since the declaration of Republic and banking system has the most affected sector from the results of these crises. This paper examines some bank failure prediction models using financial ratios. Survival, ordinary and conditional logistic regression models are employed in order to develop these prediction models. The empirical results indicate that the bank is more likely to go bankrupt if it is unprofitable, small, highly leveraged, and has liquidity problems and less financial flexibility to invest itself. Keywords: Bank Failure, Conditional Logistic Regression, Cox Regression, Financial Ratio, Hazard, Ordinary Logistic Regression. 1. Introduction Recent episodes of financial crises in emerging markets progressively highlighted the importance of a sound and well-functioning banking sector for macroeconomic stability and sustainable economic growth. There has been a great interest in constructing models to explain bank failure and in categorizing banks into failed or non-failed banks since the 1960s. The bank failure studies are important for two reasons: First, an understanding of the factors related to a bank’s failure enables regulatory authorities to manage and supervise banks more efficiently. Second, the ability to differentiate between failed banks and non-failed ones could reduce the expected cost of bank failures.

  • Multi-Criteria Evaluation of Domestic and Foreign Banks in Turkey By

This can be attributed either to more global knowledge or more professional tactics in banking transactions. On the other hand, to be familiar with its soci- ety’s culture can be an opportunity for domestic banks. In this study, Turkish banks have been evaluated using finan- cial ratios taking into consideration domestic and foreign ownership. The banks have also been ranked according to performance. To achieve this, the principal components analysis and discriminant analysis have been applied.
