| Abstract: | South Africa is one of the fast-developing nations in African continent. Financial sector development is observed to be faster and wide spread compared to other countries in Africa. But the level of shadow economy is still a problem in this country. The research investigates the links between financial development and shadow economy in South Africa for the period of 1970-2009. Financial development data is obtained from the World Bank Economic Indicators and South African Reserve Bank whereas shadow economy data is obtained from Elgin and Öztunalı (2012). Time series econometrics is employed for the analysis of the case. The results are indicative for other African countries.
ÖZ: South Africa, Africa kıtasında hızla gelişmekte olan ülkelerden biridir. Finansal sektörün Africa'daki diğer ülkelere kıyasla daha hızlı ve yaygın olduğu görülmektedir. Fakat gölge ekonomisinin seviyesi hala bu ülkede bir sorundur. Araştırma, 1970-2009 döneminde South Africa'da finansal kalkınma ve gölge ekonomisi arasındaki bağlantıları araştırıyor. Finansal gelişme verileri Dünya Bankası Ekonomik Göstergeleri ve South Africa Bankası'ndan alınırken, gölge ekonomisi verileri Elgin ve Öztunalı'dan (2012). Davanın analizi için zaman serisi ekonometri kullanılmıştır. Bulguların bir kısmı Schneider ve Enste (2000) ile uyumludur. Sonuçlar, diğer Africa ülkeleri için gösterge niteliğindedir. |
