Remittances and misery index in Turkey: is there a link?

Pages 895-899 | Published online: 20 Sep 2017
 

ABSTRACT

This study tests the long run relationship between remittances and misery index in Turkey over the 1975–2011 period, using bounds testing approach. The results indicate that remittances and misery index are co-integrated. The misery index appears to have positive impact on remittance inflows in both short and long run, supporting altruism theory in remittance sending behaviour in Turkey.
