Resmi Kalkınma Yardımları ve Dış Ticaret İlişkisi: Çad Örneği

Year 2025, Volume: 28 Issue: 1, 311 - 325, 30.04.2025

Abstract

OECD Kalkınma Yardımları Komitesi (DAC) tarafından sağlanan Resmi Kalkınma Yardımları(RKY), az gelişmiş ve gelişmekte olan ülkelere belirli kıstaslar çerçevesinde verilen mali destek anlamına gelmektedir. Bu bağlamda özellikle gelişmekte olan ülkelerde, iktisadi kalkınmanın finansmanı için kullanılan araçlardan birisi olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Çalışma gelişmekte olan ülkelerden biri olan Çad'da, resmi kalkınma yardımlarının dış ticaret üzerindeki etkisini incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. 1960-2022 yıllarına ait Dünya Bankası ve OECD veri tabanından alınan ihracat (EXPORT), ithalat (IMPORT), gayrisafi yurtiçi hasıla (GSYH) ve resmi kalkınma yardımlarına (ODA) ilişkin veriler kullanılarak, bu yardımların Çad'ın dış ticaretine ve ekonomik sürdürülebilirliğine katkısını değerlendirmeyi hedeflemiştir. Analizde En Küçük Kareler Yöntemi ile Regresyon Analizi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Zaman serilerinin durağanlık özelliklerinin test edilmesi amacıyla Phillips-Perron ve Augmented Dickey-Fuller birim kök testleri uygulanmıştır. Seriler arasında uzun dönemli ilişkiler Johansen Eşbütünleşme Testi ile incelenmiş ve değişkenler arasındaki ilişkilerin yönünün belirlenmesi için de Granger Nedensellik Analizi yapılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgular GSYH ile ODA ve ODA ile ihracat arasında çift yönlü ilişki bulunduğunu göstermektedir. Bununla birlikte, ODA' nın ithalata ve GSYH'nin ihracata etkisi tek yönlüdür. Ayrıca, GSYH ile ithalat arasında çift yönlü bir ilişki gözlemlenmiştir. Araştırma sonuçları kalkınma yardımlarının Çad'ın ekonomik büyümesini ve dış ticaret performansını olumlu yönde güçlendirebileceğini göstermektedir. Kalkınma yardımlarının ve dış ticaret stratejilerinin, Çad’ın ekonomik sürdürülebilirliği ve büyümesi için nasıl entegre edilebileceğine dair önemli bulgular sunması nedeniyle literatürde önemli bir boşluğu doldurmaktadır. Çalışmanın kısıtları arasında, veri sınırlamaları ve dış ticaret politikalarının zaman içindeki değişkenliği yer almaktadır.

Official Development Assistance and Foreign Trade Relation: The Chad Example

Abstract

Official Development Assistance (ODA) provided by the OECD Development Assistance Committee (DAC) means financial support given to underdeveloped and developing countries within the framework of certain criteria. In this context, it appears as one of the tools used to finance economic development, especially in developing countries. The study aims to examine the impact of official development assistance on foreign trade in Chad, one of the developing countries. Using data on exports (EXPORT), imports (IMPORT), gross domestic product (GDP) and official development assistance (ODA) from the World Bank and OECD database for the years 1960-2022, we examine the contribution of these aid to Chad's foreign trade and economic sustainability. aimed to evaluate. In the analysis, Regression Analysis was performed with the Least Squares Method. Phillips-Perron and Augmented Dickey-Fuller unit root tests were applied to test the stationarity properties of time series. Long-term relationships between the series were examined with the Johansen Cointegration Test and Granger Causality Analysis was performed to determine the direction of the relationships between the variables. The findings show that there is a bidirectional relationship between GDP and ODA, and between ODA and exports. However, the effect of ODA on imports and GDP on exports is unidirectional. Additionally, a bidirectional relationship between GDP and imports has been observed. Research results show that development aid can positively strengthen Chad's economic growth and foreign trade performance. It fills an important gap in the literature as it provides important findings on how development aid and foreign trade strategies can be integrated for Chad's economic sustainability and growth. Limitations of the study include data limitations and the variability of foreign trade policies over time.
