Abstract

In this research paper, the quarter data has been collected from Turkish Central Bank in order to determine the relationship between economic growth, FDI and participation banks of Turkey over the periods of 2002 - 2014. Several econometrical models have been implemented to reveal this relation among variables. In this context, it has been found that there is a long-term linkage between economic growth, FDI and breakdown of participation funds in Islamic banking by implementing Johansen co-integration test. On the other hand, according to Granger causality test (GCT), when the lag number is 3, there is a bidirectional relationship between GDP and participation funds in Islamic banking. According to results of both Johansen co-integration and Granger causality test, the contribution of Islamic banking to*the economic growth of Turkey is so vital. The linear regression analysis has to be used to reply the research questions. The results indicated that there is the considerable impact of GDP on Islamic bank deposits in Turkey which is founded 0.0006.
