Article Citation Count: 4Financial technology in developing economies: A note on digital lending in Turkey(Elsevier Science Sa, 2021) Tiniç, Murat; Savaser, Tanseli; Tinic, Murat; Tumer-Alkan, GunseliWe examine the differences in the loan performance of fintech and bank borrowers in Turkey. Using data of 5.5 million consumer loans by the fifth-largest private commercial bank in Turkey and its fintech subsidiary, we demonstrate that fintech borrowers are on average younger, better educated, have higher income and savings levels, pay less interest and have better credit history than traditional bank borrowers. Furthermore, fintech borrowers are less likely to default. Superior performance of fintech loans is driven by the fintech firm's ability to identify creditworthy borrowers among individuals with low-credit scores. These results contrast with the earlier evidence for developed markets where fintech borrowers are found to be more risky. (C) 2021 Elsevier B.V.

Using a proprietary dataset of over 5.5 million consumer loans offered by the fifth-largest bank in Turkey and its fintech subsidiary, the authors first document a significant gender gap in average loan performances. In line with the previous empirical findings, men are more likely to default on their debt. The average difference in loan performance is around 10 basis points, indicating a statistically and economically significant magnitude even after controlling for an exhaustive list of demographic and credit characteristics. Next, the authors show that the gender gap in loan performance is more pronounced in areas where women have more outside options in terms of social and economic opportunities. Specifically, the authors observe that gender-based differences are predominantly evident in cities with higher divorce rates, lower young and elderly dependence, smaller household sizes, and higher labor force participation of women. Since the child and elderly care duties disproportionately influence women's ability to participate in economic life, their ability to find resources to pay their loans in a timely manner improves more in comparison to men in areas where women face fewer restrictions to seek local economic opportunities outside the household. Finally, the authors document that fintech loans partially mitigate the gender-based differences in consumer loan performance in those cities. This result suggests that the developments in financial technology can reduce the inefficiencies associated with human involvement in credit decisions, narrowing the gender gap in loan outcomes to the extent that these gaps are attributable to the supply-side factors that involve human judgment and biases.Article Citation Count: 2Informed trading, order flow shocks and the cross section of expected returns in Borsa Istanbul(Routledge Journals, 2020) Tiniç, Murat; Salih, AslihanThis paper examines the relationship between information asymmetry and stock returns in Borsa Istanbul. For all stocks that are traded in Borsa Istanbul between March 2005 and April 2017, we estimate the probability of informed trading (PIN) to proxy for information asymmetry.? Firm-level cross-sectional regressions indicate a statistically insignificant relationship between PIN estimates and future returns. Moreover, univariate and multivariate portfolio analyses assert that investors that hold stocks that have high information asymmetry do not obtain significant future returns. Consequently, our results suggest that information asymmetry proxied by PIN is a firm-specific risk and can be eliminated with portfolio diversification. Findings are robust to different factorizations in estimating PIN and free of any bias due to trade classification algorithms, boundary solutions, floating-point exceptions and symmetric?order flow shocks.Article Citation Count: 0Adverse selection in cryptocurrency markets(Wiley, 2023) Tiniç, Murat; Sensoy, Ahmet; Akyildirim, Erdinc; Corbet, ShaenIn this article we investigate the influence that information asymmetry may have on future volatility, liquidity, market toxicity, and returns within cryptocurrency markets. We use the adverse-selection component of the effective spread as a proxy for overall information asymmetry. Using order and trade data from the Bitfinex exchange, we first document statistically significant adverse-selection costs for major cryptocurrencies. Also, our results suggest that adverse-selection costs, on average, correspond to 10% of the estimated effective spread, indicating an economically significant impact of adverse-selection risk on transaction costs in cryptocurrency markets. Finally, we document that adverse-selection costs are important predictors of intraday volatility, liquidity, market toxicity, and returns.Article Citation Count: 0A note on stock market response to elections in the post-communist countries of the European Union(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2023) Tiniç, Murat; Tinic, MuratWe examine the stock market response to parliamentary elections in post-communist countries of the European Union. We document that the long-term market response to an election is -200 basis points (bps). The response is symmetric across the ideology of the winner party. Moreover, we show that aggregate responses are driven by elections with policy uncertainty due to the transition of power across ideologies. The long-term market response to right (left) victories after left (right) governments is -500 bps (-600bps).Article Citation Count: 4Who to trust? Reactions to analyst recommendations of domestic versus foreign brokerage houses in a developing stock market(Elsevier Ltd, 2021) Tiniç, Murat; Bodur, Mehmet; Tiniç, MuratAnnouncement day abnormal returns around analyst recommendations of upgrades average 35 and downgrades average -45 basis points in Borsa Istanbul. The nationality of the investment bank issuing the recommendation affects the magnitude of the stock market reaction. The absolute magnitude of abnormal returns upon upgrade and downgrade recommendations of foreign investment banks is larger than that of local investment banks. The differential reaction indicates that in a developing market country, Turkey, investors pay closer attention when the source of information is foreign rather than local.Article Citation Count: 4Political turmoil and the impact of foreign orders on equity prices(Elsevier, 2020) Tiniç, Murat; Savaşer, TanseliThis paper examines whether foreign investors possess an information advantage over local investors in the Turkish stock market between 2007 and 2015. We find that foreign investors have an information advantage in 24 stocks, corresponding to seven percent of the sample firms. Foreign investors' information advantage tends to prevail primarily during a period of political instability, which started with the Gezi Park protests in June 2013. The adverse selection component of the foreign trade spreads, which reflects a permanent change in stock prices, rises significantly after June 2013, by 66 bps. Our results suggest that domestic investors' funding constraints, which limit their ability to impart their information on stock prices, may give foreign investors a relative information advantage during periods of political turmoil.

For all stocks traded on Borsa Istanbul between March 2005 and December 2020, we calculate information shocks as unanticipated information asymmetry by focusing on changes in the proportion of the effective spread attributable to adverse selection. Our results indicate a significant return premium for an information shock strategy. Specifically, the return premium associated with the zero-investment information shock portfolios is 72 basis points. After controlling for several factors, we then document a significant predictive relationship between information shocks and future returns. The predictive power and the return premium associated with the information shock strategy are stronger after the initiation of the BISTECH trading system, which enables heterogeneity across investors vis-a-vis trade execution latency. These results suggest that, after the introduction of fast trading, the risks associated with information shocks become systemically important in the cost of equity.Copyright & COPY; 2022 Borsa Istanbul Anonim S,irketi.

Our firm-level cross-sectional analysis asserts that informed trading can significantly increase future herding levels. Furthermore, we show that the relationship between informed trading and herding intensifies under short-selling restrictions. Our results confirm the predictions of the informational cascades framework where the individuals disregard their private information to follow others. We show that information cascades are relevant both for buy-side herding and sell-side herding. Short-selling restrictions may reinforce the herding behaviour since informed investors may not be able to clear out potential price misalignments.
