Türk sigorta sektörünün dünya sigorta piyasasındaki yeri
Bu tez çalışması, Türk sigorta sektörünün dünya sigorta piyasasındaki yerini analiz ederek, sektörün mevcut durumu, güçlü ve zayıf yönleri ile küresel rekabet gücünü artırmaya yönelik öneriler sunmaktadır. Çalışmanın kapsamı, hem dünya çapındaki sigorta sektörü dinamiklerini hem de Türkiye özelinide kapsayarak, penetrasyon oranları, pazar büyüklüğü, piyasa payları ve sektör yoğunlaşması gibi temel metrikler üzerinden bir değerlendirme yapılmıştır. Ayrıca dijitalleşme, inovasyon ve sürdürülebilirlik gibi modern sigortacılık trendlerinin Türkiye'deki gelişimi ve özellikleri incelenmiştir. Bu çalışma, Türk sigorta sektörünün Dünya sigorta piyasasıyla karşılaştırmalı olarak gelişmesini ve büyüme potansiyelini ortaya koymak amacıyla yapılmıştır. Sigorta sektörünün, ekonomik olarak büyüyüklüğü ve ekonomiye sunacağı katkılar ele alınarak, sektörel büyümenin önemi ve gerekliliği ele alınmıştır. Araştırmanın önemi, Türkiye'nin ekonomik büyüklüğü ile sigorta sektörü arasındaki uyumsuzluk analiz edilerek, dünya sigorta sektöründe rekabet gücünü artıracak adımların belirlenmesine katkı sağlanması amaçlanmaktadır. Bu Çalışmada, literatür taraması, sektörel veri analizi ve karşılaştırmalı yöntemler kullanılmıştır. Herfindahl-Hirschman Endeksi (HHI) gibi yoğunlaşma ölçütleri, penetrasyon oranları ve pazar büyüklüğü analizleri gibi teknikler uygulanmıştır. Veriler, Türk Sigorta ve Reasürans Şirketleri Birliği (TSB), OECD, Swiss Re ve Allianz SE gibi kaynaklardan derlenmiştir. Ayrıca, grafik ve tablolarla desteklenen kapsamlı bir veri analizi yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın bulguları, Türkiye'nin sigorta sektörünün penetrasyon oranlarının ve kişi başına düşen sigorta harcamalarının dünya ortalamalarının altında kaldığını; ancak sağlık ve hayat sigortalarına olan talebin artması ve dijitalleşme süreçlerine adaptasyonun sektörün büyüme potansiyelini artırdığını göstermektedir. Ayrıca, küresel ekonomik belirsizliklerin ve enflasyonun sektörel büyüme üzerinde olumsuz etkileri olduğu belirlenmiştir. Sonuç olarak, Türk sigorta sektörünün dünya sigorta piyasasındaki yerini iyileştirmek için, regülasyonların güçlendirilmesi, dijitalleşme süreçlerinin hızlandırılması, sigorta bilincinin artırılması ve yeni ürün geliştirme stratejilerinin uygulanması gerektiği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Bu bağlamda, sektörel büyüme hedefleri için ulusal ve uluslararası iş birliklerinin artırılması, eğitim programlarının desteklenmesi ve sürdürülebilir sigortacılık anlayışının benimsenmesi önerilmiştir.This thesis analyzes the current status of the Turkish insurance sector among world insurers, and offers suggestions to increase global competitiveness with strong and weak changes. The scope of the study covers both the dynamics of the insurance sector worldwide and Turkey in particular, and an evaluation has been made on basic metrics such as penetration rates, market size, market shares and sector concentration. In addition, the development and characteristics of modern insurance trends such as digitalization, innovation and sustainability in Turkey have been examined. This study was conducted to reveal the comparative development and growth potential of the Turkish insurance sector with the world insurance market. The economic size of the insurance sector and its contributions to the economy have been addressed, and the importance and necessity of sectoral growth have been addressed. The importance of the research is to analyze the inconsistency between Turkey's economic size and the insurance sector, and to contribute to the determination of steps that will increase competitiveness in the world insurance sector. In this study, literature review, sectoral data analysis and comparative methods have been used. Techniques such as concentration measures such as the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI), penetration rates and market size analyses were applied. The data was compiled from sources such as the Association of Turkish Insurance and Reinsurance Companies (TSB), OECD, Swiss Re and Allianz SE. In addition, a comprehensive data analysis supported by graphs and tables was conducted. The findings of the research show that the penetration rates and per capita insurance expenditures of Turkey's insurance sector remain below world averages; however, the increase in demand for health and life insurance and adaptation to digitalization processes have increased the growth potential of the sector. In addition, it was determined that global economic uncertainties and inflation have negative effects on sectoral growth. As a result, it was concluded that in order to improve the position of the Turkish insurance sector in the global insurance market, regulations should be strengthened, digitalization processes should be accelerated, insurance awareness should be increased and new product development strategies should be implemented. In this context, it was suggested that national and international collaborations should be increased for sectoral growth targets, training programs should be supported and a sustainable insurance approach should be adopted
Comparison of functionality, mood, and biopsychosocial status in rheumatic patients with and without self-reported bowel problems and the evaluation of BETY's impact on these factors: A retrospective study
Objective: This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the comparison of functionality, mood, and biopsychosocial status in rheumatic patients with and without self-reported bowel problems and the evaluation of Bili & scedil;sel Egzersiz Terapi Yakla & scedil;& imath;m & imath; (BETY) - (Cognitive Exercise Therapy Approach in English)'s impact on these factors. Methods: The study included 718 patients with eight different diagnoses of rheumatism. The presence of self-reported bowel problems in rheumatic patients was assessed with item 10 of the BETY-Biopsychosocial Questionnaire (BETY-BQ), functionality with the Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ), emotional status with the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), and biopsychosocial status (BPS) with the BETY-BQ. Sixty-five rheumatic patients were included in BETY group exercise sessions for 3 months, 3 days a week. Results: The rate of self-reporting bowel problems in the total cohort was 61.6%. Among all BPS parameters examined, a significant difference was found in favor of rheumatic individuals who did not report bowel symptoms (p <.005). All patients included in the BETY sessions achieved improvement in all parameters, including bowel symptoms (p <.005). Conclusions: Many patients suffered from bowel problems. The investigated parameters of rheumatic patients with bowel symptoms were negatively affected. BETY improved all parameters, including bowel symptoms. BPS features should be considered in disease management in rheumatic patients reporting bowel problems. BETY should be used as an exercise intervention based on the BPS model in these patients
Developing a novel layer network structure for a LSTM model to predict mean monthly river streamflow
In this research, novel innovative DDN layer network structures by hybridizing double-LSTM model with an addition layer (+) (i.e., 2LSTM and 2LSTM + layer network models) are developed purposefully to enhance prediction performance of the mean monthly Maroon River streamflow (MRSFm) in Iran from October 1987 to September 2017. For doing so, to select the most effective parameters on MRSFm, the Pearson’s correlation coefficient (PCC) and Cosine amplitude sensitivity (CAS) as features selection process are carried out for potential meteorological variables in the study area (i.e., average monthly temperature (Tm), evaporation (ETm), and precipitation (Pm)) and target (MRSFm). The results show that Tm and ETm have an insignificant influence on MRSFm, thus, only Pm is used as the most effective input variable in predicting MRSFm. Due to a well-balanced network model’s structural outline in the suggested novel hybrid 2LSTM + model, it accordingly yields to a suitable total learnable parameter (TLP) compared to ordinary standalone LSTM and GRU as the benchmark models developed in the similar meta-parameters. This model under the optimal meant meta-parameters tuned i.e., state activation functions (SAF) = tanh-softsign, numbers of hidden neurons (NHN) = 75, dropout rate (P-rate) = 0.5, performs best among the models with an R2 of 0.68, NSE of 0.63, PBIAS of 41%, KGE of 0.79, and RMSE of 19.24 m3/s. Comparatively, a standard gated recurrent units (GRU) and LSTM as benchmark models using the optimal scenario generate the following results: R2 are 0.57 and 0.67, NSE are 0.53 and 0.61, PBIAS are 109 and 49%, KGE are 0.63 and 0.79, and RMSE are 21.11 and 19.32 m3/s, respectively. Generally, in all models, in the equal NHN, rising P-rate value reduces convergence time. © The Author(s) 2025
Green Transformational Leadership, Creativity, and Organizational Culture: A Structural Model of Pro-Environmental Behavior in an Emerging Cosmetics Market
Understanding the behavioral foundations of green transformation within firms requires attention to both leadership processesand the motivational mechanisms that shape employee action. Drawing on transformational leadership theory, the resource-based view, and self-determination theory, this study investigates how green transformational leadership (GTL) relates to pro-environmental behavior (PEB) through the creative and contextual conditions that support intrinsic motivation. Survey datafrom 1063 employees in the Turkish cosmetics industry were analyzed using structural equation modeling. The results indicatethat green creativity (GC) transmits the influence of GTL on PEB, whereas green organizational culture (GOC) strengthens theconditions under which this influence is expressed. These findings clarify how leadership, creativity, and cultural support jointlyunderpin employees' environmental engagement. The study contributes to research on organizational greening by highlight-ing the motivational and contextual pathways through which leadership encourages sustainable behavior in emerging marketsettings
