External Sector

1. External Sector Econ 102 _2013

2. External Sector How is a country linked with other countries in the global world? • There are exchange of Goods and Services • There are exchange of Assets What is different? We have Turkish Lira (TL), US has US dollars ($) and European Union has Euro(€)

3. Foreign currency • Exchange rate is the TL price of a foreign currency in Turkey. Eg. 1 $= 2.08 TL (TL price of one dollar) or 0.48 $ = 1 TL ( dollar price of one TL) • If TL price of a $ increases, TL depreciates • (TL becomes less valuable compared to $)

4. Exchange of Goods and Services • Exports are the goods that we sell (and foreign economies buy). Hence, it is a source of foreign exchange. Exports= F( Yforeign, exchange rate) • Imports are the good that we buy (foreign sell to us). Hence we use foreign exchange to purchase imports Imports= F( Ydomestic, exchange rate)

5. Net Exports • Net Exports = value of Exports- value of imports Net Exports = F( Y domestic , Yforeign, exchange rate) This is also called the Trade Balance

6. Exchange of Financial Assets • We exchange Bonds, Shares, other assets. Asset demand depends on relative returns, i.e. interest rates, hence investors compare domestic interest rate < or > foreign interest rates i< or > i*

7. Asset demand • Example: Turkish treasury TL bonds: i = 10%, German treasury Euro bonds: i* = 8% Which one will the investors prefer to buy?

8. Asset demand • Example: Turkish treasury TL bonds: i = 10%, German treasury Euro bonds: i* = 8% Which one will the investors prefer? What if during this period it is expected that e will increase by 5 %, that is TL depreciates by 5 %, will you still prefer to buy Turkish Bonds.?

9. Asset demand • Example: Turkish treasury TL bonds: i = 10%, German treasury Euro bonds: i* = 8% Which one will the investors prefer? iEURO = iTL - expected % change in e. 8% = 10 % - expected D % in e

10. How are the foreign transaction recorded? • Balance of Payments: (ÖdemelerDengesi) Accounting method of all monetary transactions, with double entry system. Every transaction is recorded in different parts of the Balance of Payments.
