Abstract :This study aims to determine the impact of participation bank credits on imports and exports in Türkiye. The research employs Generalized Linear model (GLM-logit) for identifying the effect of participation bank loans on foreign trade (export-import) by using quarterly data including the period from 2013Q1 to 2024Q2. Kolmogorov-Smirnov test is used for normality of parameters. Spearman’s rho and year controlled partial correlation analysis are applied for correlations. Analysis results indicate that participation bank credits have a significant and positive effect on both export and import for the analyzed period. International trade contributes to the growth of economies by providing new market opportunities. Research findings reveal the importance of participation bank financing in Türkiye in terms of increasing the potential of foreign trade markets.
