    Current Account and Credit Growth: the Role of Household Credit and Financial Depth
    (Elsevier Science inc, 2020) Ekinci, Mehmet Fatih; Ekinci, Mehmet Fatih; Omay, Tolga; Omay, Tolga; Ekinci, Mehmet Fatih; Omay, Tolga; Economics; Economics
    Understanding the impact of financial variables on the current account balance is one of the priorities of academic literature and policymakers. Evidence from a broad panel of advanced and emerging countries shows that an increase in credit growth is associated with a significant deterioration in the current account balance. When we examine the roles of the components of credit, we find that an increase in household credit causes a significant decline in the current account balance, whereas an increase in business loans has no significant effect. Therefore, our findings indicate that the significant negative impact of credit growth on the current account balance is driven by household credit. Furthermore, we show that total and household credit growth rates have a stronger negative effect on the current account balance for lower levels of financial depth. Our results suggest that targeted policy measures that curb household credit growth might be more effective to reduce external imbalances particularly at the early stages of financial deepening.

    Macroprudential Policies and Current Account Balance
    (Elsevier, 2022) Ozcan, Guelserim; Ekinci, Mehmet Fatih
    Macroprudential policies have become essential tools for policymakers to maintain financial stability. We investigate the impact of macroprudential policies on the current account balance, considering the link between external imbalances and financial stability. Building on a panel VAR model, we further document that usage of a macroprudential instrument is associated with an improvement in the current account balance. Our findings suggest that the positive impact of macroprudential policy measures on the current account balance is more substantial in the deficit countries.

    Asymmetric Effects of Credit Growth on the Current Account Balance: Panel Data Evidence
    (Springer Science and Business Media B.V., 2019) Ekinci,M.F.; Omay,T.
    Expanding current account balances (both surpluses and deficits) prior to the global economic crisis dominated academic and policy debates over the past decade. Understanding the role of credit growth on the current account balance has become a priority particularly with the rebalancing experience in the post-crisis period. In this study, we adopt a comprehensive framework by constructing an empirical model that accommodates asymmetric adjustments of current account balance to the changes in the total and household credit growth. We consider the asymmetric effects in two dimensions. When we discriminate between credit expansion and contraction episodes, our results show that credit growth has a stronger negative impact on the current account balance during credit expansion periods. Furthermore, negative effects of total and household credit growth on the current account balance are more pronounced during current account deficit episodes. © 2019, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
