4.Trade Reform in Selected Developing Countries

5.The Four Asian Tigers

6.How did the Four Asian Countries Achieve ?

7.And Turkey

0.The Origin of Export-led Growth Strategy

Page 3: Outward looking development policies

The origin of export-led growth strategy is based onA. Smith and D. Ricardo’s thoughts.

• A. Smith suggests to increase exports to least developed countries (colonialcountries) needed for the development.

• And D. Ricardo’s "Comparative Advantage Theory (CAT)”, the main starting point of today's export-led growth strategy

Outward-Looking Development Strategies

Government support for manufacturing sectors in which a country has potential comparative advantege.

Page 5: Outward looking development policies

• There are some tests about the relationship between economic growth and export in economic literature.

• Some of them say that export affects economic growth

The main of these studies are as follows:

Tyler (1981), Kavoussi (1984), Rivera-Batiz and Romer (1991), Grossman (1991), Bahmani-Oskooee and Alse (1993), Sengupta and Espana (1994), Kwan and Kwok (1995), Doraisami (1996), Bahmani-Oskooee and Niroomand (1999).

• And some economists say that there is no significant relationship

Akbar and Naqvi (2000), Ahmed et al.(2000), Panas and Vamvoukas (2002).

Page 6: Outward looking development policies

Some important effects on economic growth of exports can be summarized as follows:

• First, export increases competitiveness.

• Second, productivity growth in foreign trade, as well as to obtain new technologies(technology imports) and providing the spread of technologies.

• Third, specialization and benefit from comparative advantages

• Fourth, some economies has narrow domestic market but they can getopportunities to make the economic scale of production with exporting

• Fifth, by increasing foreign exchange inflow reduces pressure of foreign exchange payments. Thus allows an increase in imports of goods and services.

Criterion Outward looking strategy Inward looking strategy

Problems Production of primary goods as bases for outward looking strategyVulnerability due to world market developments (ToT, price shocks) Initiation of new industries

orientation according to cost disadvantagesProtectionism and inefficiencyNarrow domestic marketsHigh share of imports in inputs (no absolute foreign exchange use, but only change of imported goods)Reduction of protectionism and moving towards export-orientation

Page 10: Outward looking development policies

• After the oil crises of 1973, economies in the world went into a quest.

• In August 1982, Mexican crisis

Page 11: Outward looking development policies

Washington Consensus

• in 1985 the US Treasury Secretary, James Baker

• by Washington, D.C.-based institutions such as the IMF, World Bank, and the US Treasury Department

• the term was initially coined in 1989 by John Williamson to describe a set of ten specific economic policy prescriptions that he considered should constitute the "standard" reform package promoted for crisis-wracked developing countries

Page 12: Outward looking development policies

The causes of the economic crisis:

• The overgrown with protectionism and excessive state intervention in the public sector

Economic crisis management:

• reduce government intervention in the medium term

• a growth strategy based on exports to support the market economy

Page 13: Outward looking development policies

• some countries tried to apply this package which is about freee market

and a growth strategy based on exports

• Argentina experience resulted in the crisis(1999-2002), this is not the only example

- in next slides we will see exprience of Turkey

• At that time economy of Argentina was not ready yet to apply these changes

Page 14: Outward looking development policies

• Turkey applied without creating thenecessary regulatory mechanisms and without taking adequate protective measures.As a result Turkey met two of the crisis(1994 and 2001)

• Turkey had in a large public sector deficits and trade deficits before the crises

• for example, in 1993 foreign trade deficit increased by 72.7% to$14.1 billion

• Similar to the same indicators in 2000, foreign trade deficit increased by 89.9% to $26.3 billion

The Four Asian Tigers

Page 17: Outward looking development policies

How did the Four Asian Tigers achieve?

Page 18: Outward looking development policies

• The Four Asian Tigers pursued an export-driven model of economic development with the exportation of goods to highly-industrialized nations.

• All four Asian Tigers have a highly educated and skilled workforce and have specialized in areas where they had a competitive advantage. For example, Hong Kong and Singapore became world leading international financial centers, while South Korea and Taiwan became world leaders in information technology.

Page 19: Outward looking development policies

• and these countries(NICs ;Hong Kong, Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan) also produce and export high-tech products

• The highest concentration on labor-intensive exports( primarily textiles and garments) is currently in Pakistan(94%) , followed at some distance by China(58%) , India(50%), Indonesia(49%).

• The lowest wages are probably in China and Indonesia, while Hong Kong is a high-wage economy.

DEVELOPMENT OF EXPORTS in TURKEY

• Year 1980 was a turning point for the Turkish economyand foreign trade policies.

• At that year, decisions on January 24, known as acomprehensive economic package to be implemented.

Page 30: Outward looking development policies

The main purpose of this package;

• ensure the functioning of the national economy, according to therules of free market mechanism

• and achieve integration with the world economy

With this programme

• Turkey abandoned the import substitution industrialization strategy that makes the country’s economy outside a closed so that Turkey adopted "export-oriented industrialization" strategy.

Page 31: Outward looking development policies

• With liberalizing Foreign Exchange Regime in 1990and further strengthened Turkish Liras' convertibility features, and the TL was released with the export and import.

• January 24, 1980 within the framework of decisions, made as a result of the devaluation of TL against the U.S. dollar value has been reduced by 49% and is intended to give impetus to exports with domestic demand is trapped.

Page 32: Outward looking development policies

• Application of fixed exchange rate was abandoned and set on a daily basis so that a realistic exchange rate policy and flexible exchange rate system was introduced and tried to be applied.

• Government has been supporting to exporters with a varity ways such as legal regulations, tax refunds, income tax exemption, allocation of foreign exchange, imports of raw materials and export credits as a customs deductible, some monetary and fiscal incentives provided.

Page 33: Outward looking development policies

• in 1987 the Turkish Eximbank was established to improve the competitiveness of Turkish exporters in foreign markets and to support Turkey export-oriented strategy

• Turkey’s export was 2.3 billion $ in 1979 in 1990 was 12.9 billion $

For 2010, in medium-term program(2010-2013), exports of Turkey were estimated $111.7 billion

For 2013 in medium-term program(2010-2013), exports of Turkey were estimated $160 billion
