TAILIEUCHUNG - An equilibrium level of credits in the economy of Kazakhstan

The article was conducted to assess equilibrium level of credit-to-GDP ratio. The research is based on the fundamental macroeconomic indicators and international comparisons of the similar sized economies. In addition, the paper presents a set of econometric methods for estimating the influence of supply and demand factors on the dynamics of credit aggregates. Namely, the Error Correction Model and Hodrick-Prescott filter were applied, since they are suitable tools to assess long-term relationships between credit demand and supply as well as they can adequately assess the level of credit in the economy. In conclusion, it appears that the current level of this indicator in Kazakhstan is likely to be close to equilibrium or slightly lower it. | Journal of Applied Finance Banking vol. 9 no. 1 2019 27-39 ISSN 1792-6580 print version 1792-6599 online Scienpress Ltd 2019 An equilibrium level of credits in the economy of Kazakhstan Shalkar Baikulakov1 Abstract The article was conducted to assess equilibrium level of credit-to-GDP ratio.
