Keywords:
Capital structure, indebtedness, growth opportunities, value creation,Abstract
Various studies in the Capital Structure field seek to analyze the relation between indebtedness and its determinants. However, most of such studies analyze this relation based on samples that contemplate all types of companies. This article attempts an analysis of the relations between indebtedness (dependent variable) and its determinants (independent variables) taking into consideration different characteristics of the company’s growth. The companies analyzed are divided into two different samples (high and low growth) and the regression analysis is performed for each of them. The results indicate that a company’s growth opportunities significantly affect the relations between indebtedness and its determinants.
