Turkish exporters substantially
broadened market reach, exporting to 137 countries at
present, up from 90 in 2000. Turkey's global market
share rose substantially from 0.55 percent of global imports
in 2002 to 0.82 percent in 2012. Turkey aims to become one
of the ten largest economies in the world by 2023, with
per-capita gross domestic product (GDP) rising to United
States (U.S.) $25,000 and exports to U.S. 500 billion
dollars. This report focuses on Turkey's
competitiveness from the supply side, but it is important to
note that ensuring a more balanced mix of financing for the
required investment through measures to boost domestic
savings is equally important if Turkey's progress is to
be sustained. Achieving Turkey's export target is
possible and it will likely require a larger global market
share. The relatively low level of foreign direct investment
(FDI) in Turkish manufacturing has been a constraint to
export growth and quality improvements. Raising export
growth to levels that help meet Turkey's development
goals will require a policy agenda that targets sustained
further improvements in Turkey's physical, human, and
institutional capital. This report prioritizes broader
policies that are fundamental for Turkey to export its way
out of middle-income. Chief among these are policies that:
(i) link the country further with international markets,
including by helping bring larger inflows of FDI,
particularly into the manufacturing sector; (ii) promote
innovation, including by encouraging a large role for
private companies in research and development (R and D);
(iii) upgrade the skills both of the existing work force and
new entrants; and (iv) improve access to finance,
particularly long-term, with a view to unlock the potential
of the dynamic small and medium enterprise (SME) sector. |
