The objective of this study is to analyze the causality relationship between economic freedom index and bist 100 in the period of 1995-2018 by employing fourier kpss test and fourier granger causality test. The results supported no causality relationship between economic freedom index and stock market indices in turkey in the period of 1995-2018.
