Question:

Interest rates in Turkey were relatively stable at 8 percent from 2015 through April 2018 but were increased to 17.75 percent in June of that year for two months. Higher interest rates increase the cost of borrowing and discourage firms from borrowing and investing. They also have an effect on the value of the bonds (private and government) outstanding in the economy. How would such a drastic increase in the interest rates would have impacted the price of Turkish bonds? Explain briefly but clearly why the value of bonds changes when interest rates change.
