According to the results of the study, Linder hypothesis is valid in terms of exports between Turkey and BRICS countries. Accordingly, the difference of per capita GNP levels between Turkey and BRICS countries as long as decreases, the exports of Turkey’s to these countries increase. In other words, %1 decrease in the difference of per capita GNP levels between Turkey and BRICS countries increases the exports of Turkey rate of 0.09%. This shows that the trade between Turkey and BRICS countries is interindustry trade. On the other hand, 1% increase in GNP of BRICS countries increases export of Turkey rate of 2.867%. Linder Hypothesis is not valid in terms of importation in between Turkey and BRICS countries.
