Yayın Monetary policy and nonperforming loan ratios in a monetary union; a counterfactual study(Emerald Publishing, 2023) Özcan, Rasim; Khan, Asad ul Islam; Napari, Ayuba; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İktisat BölümüPurpose – For close to two decades, the West African Monetary Zone (WAMZ) has been preparing to launch a second monetary union within the ECOWAS region. This study aims to determine the impact such a unionised monetary regime will have on financial stability as represented by the nonperforming loan ratios of Ghana in a counterfactual framework. Design/methodology/approach – This study models nonperforming loan ratios as dependent on the monetary policy rate and the business cycle. The study then used historical data to estimate the parameters of the nonperforming loan ratio response function using an Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) approach. The estimated parameters are further used to estimate the impact of several counterfactual unionised monetary policy rates on the nonperforming loan ratios and its volatility of Ghana. As robustness check, the Least Absolute Shrinkage Selection Operator (LASSO) regression is also used to estimate the nonperforming loan ratios response function and to predict nonperforming loans under the counterfactual unionised monetary policy rates. Findings – The results of the counterfactual study reveals that the apparent cost of monetary unification is much less than supposed with a monetary union likely to dampen volatility in non-performing loans in Ghana. As such, the WAMZ members should increase the pace towards monetary unification. Originality/value – The paper contributes to the existing literature by explicitly modelling nonperforming loan ratios as dependent on monetary policy and the business cycle. The study also settles the debate on the financial stability cost of a monetary union due to the nonalignment of business cycles and economic structures.Yayın Decentralized finance(Springer Nature, 2021) Özcan, Rasim; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme BölümüNewer and better ways of financing lubricates the wheels of an economy. In recent years, there have been phenomenal changes in technologies used in finance. One of such technologies was introduced by creating the first cryptocurrency Bitcoin. The technology behind this invention is known as blockchain. Although there are and there might be other use cases of blockchain technology, the finance era is important and currently it is the most adapted industry; currently there are a number of cryptocurrencies, tokens, smart contract applications among others. This article seeks to introduce the basics of—so called—decentralized finance (DeFi) through an exploration of blockchain technology in the field of finance. The focus is on the definition of decentralized finance, its elements, its current state and its future. Elimination of intermediary need, easier access, improved inclusiveness, and transaction speed, flexibility to write any contract that can be codable, immutability of transactions, better interoperability and censorship resistance are some of the main advantages of blockchain. Additionally, increased privacy, transparency, enhanced security, efficiency in the form of reduction in overhead costs for banks, and trust are considered as the benefits of blockchain technology in finance, hence for DeFi. Its power need due to the excessive computer power needs, setting standards in validating new blocks and in communicating between different networks are important issues. Besides, user experience, scalability, current speed of blockchain networks, regulations like AML and KYC requirements, the lack of regulation in DeFi, and interoperability are key issues as well. In summary, the current state of DeFi markets is not technologically able to provide a worldwide service at the scale the centralized finance provides. It needs improvements in its technology and sound regulations to gain wide acceptance.Yayın The pursuit of the best: Economic perspectives, analyses and applications(Nobel Bilimsel Eserler, 2019) Özcan, Rasim; Özcan, Rasim; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İktisat BölümüEmerging technologies not only reshape the economic life and its parameters but also provide new tools in analyzing economic developments and newly formed economic structures. In particular, the recent wave of digitalization has been changing the economic structure from how to produce to what and how to consume. Digitalization also provides new tools to understand and analyze new economic structures and developments. This book focuses on financial markets by considering the challenges and opportunities provided by the digitalization towards understanding the new economic tectonic shifts.Yayın Regulating and boosting capital markets in turbulent times(Nobel Bilimsel Eserler, 2019) Özcan, Rasim; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İktisat Bölümü[No Abstract Available]Yayın Assesing the historic economic downturn from a historical perspective(Nobel Bilimsel Eserler, 2019) Özcan, Rasim; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İktisat Bölümü[No Abstract Available]Yayın Central Bank's conundrum in responding to global economic pandemonium(Nobel Bilimsel Eserler, 2019) Özcan, Rasim; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İktisat Bölümü[No Abstract Available]Yayın Closing auctions: Dealing with closing price manipulations in stock markets(Nobel Bilimsel Eserler, 2019) Özcan, Rasim; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İktisat Bölümü[No Abstract Available]Yayın The best may not be the best innovation towards creating sellable products(Nobel Bilimsel Eserler, 2019) Özcan, Rasim; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İktisat Bölümü[No Abstract Available]
