Abstract: This study examines the relationship between nominal exchange rates and consumer price index (CPI) in Turkey for the period 2003:01- 2018:02 by using monthly data. According to the results of bound testing to cointegration under NARDL approach, CPI is found to be correlated with positive and negative exchange rate baskets in the long run. Moreover, a 1% of depreciation and appreciation in TL results in 0.24% and 0.17% increase in CPI, respectively. Therefore, the amount of increase in CPI due to rising exchange rates is greater than that of an increase due to falling exchange rates in the period studied.Classification-JEL:C12, E31, F31.
