Objetivo: Este estudo tem como objetivo compreender como os fatores macroeconômicos e as características das firmas impactam na definição da estrutura de capital das empresas brasileiras, tendo em vista o contexto regional. Método: O estudo envolveu 426 empresas brasileiras, não financeiras, listadas na B3 durante o período de 2007 a 2017. Na perspectiva interna, foram utilizadas as variáveis liquidez, ROE, tangibilidade e tamanho, enquanto, na abordagem externa, as variáveis PIB, inflação e a identificação dos períodos de crise, representados pelos anos 2008 e 2015. Resultados: Os resultados evidenciaram que a maioria das organizações está situada nas regiões sudeste e sul (86%), sendo o controle pelas regiões um fator importante na tomada de decisão a respeito do financiamento das empresas. Além disso, foi corroborada a teoria Pecking Order, no que tange às características das firmas, uma vez que as empresas tendem a priorizar a utilização de recursos internos ao de terceiros, especialmente em momentos de recessão econômica, quando há maior impacto nos lucros empresariais. No entanto, não foi ratificada a teoria Market Timing, o que sugere que as empresas não tendem a observar as janelas de oportunidade para a emissão dos títulos. Contribuições: É relevante investigar como as decisões de financiamento das empresas são impactadas por questões que vão além das características das firmas, isto é, como elas sofrem a influência do ambiente no qual estão inseridas, sobretudo no que tange aos fatores macroeconômicos e ao contexto regional. Desse modo, entende-se que esta pesquisa avança na literatura não só por abranger os fatores externos, mas também por considerar as diferenças regionais do Brasil.

This paper examines the impacts of profitability, stock price performance and growth opportunity on the capital structure of firms in Thailand. The methodology of Kayhan and Titman (2007) is applied to model the dynamics of debt ratios. The results suggest that the leverage ratios of Thai firms do adjust towards their target levels. The deviations from the target due to the pecking-order and market timing effects are found to be significant. In contrast to Kayhan and Titman (2007), our results show that the market timing behavior does not persist.

The purpose of this paper is to scrutinize and appreciate the theories of capital structure starting from theory of Miller and Modigliani (1958) of capital structure, which is also known as irrelevance theory of capital structure and also including theory like pecking order theory, trade off theory, market timing theory and agency cost theory. In addition, authors have tried to explain the theories and their contradiction with each other in detail. This paper will be an addition to understand the theories of capital structure.

The adjustment for the firm capital structure is unclear from perspectives of trade-off theory, pecking order theory, life cycle theory, market timing theory, and free cash flow theory, since many research findings contradict each other. Adjustments for the capital structure are complex, since the conditions for each firm are different. The objective of this study is to provide empirical evidence of how firms adjust capital structure in relationship with maturity in context of trade-off, pecking order, free cash flow, and market timing theory. In terms of hypotheses testing, this study conducts logistic regression analysis with 138 Indonesian public firms as the sample in the observed period from 2010 to 2015. To distinguish the results, this study controls the sample by size and age based on the median. The study reports that preferences for the source of funds based on the cost of capital, internal conflict, and firm maturity indicate adjustments for the firm capital structure. Based on Indonesian firms, the form of capital structure in developing countries can refer to a single model or a combination of the trade-off model and pecking order model, as well as market timing.

This article aims to determine if the capital structure of Latin American companies in the emerging markets of Brazil, Chile, Mexico, and Peru, are managed according to the market timing theory or the pecking order theory. The analysis was based on a non-probabilistic sample of 170 companies, with annual data, from an unbalanced panel, in the period 2010-2018. Regressions were applied with the fixed and random effects method. The results do not show significant evidence indicating that Latin American companies comply with the pecking order theory. Furthermore, there is also no definitive evidence that companies benefit from low share prices to issue capital or from debt issuance in the face of high stock market prices. There are signs that they follow a blend of several theories, which would indicate their characteristics in the capital structure of Latin American companies.
