Ramalho, Joaquim; Rui, Rita; Vidigal da Silva, Jacinto

This paper examines the following three hypotheses about which there is some lack of clarification in the financial literature: i) family ownership is a relevant factor in determining firms’ financing decisions; ii) family ownership has a different influence on the use of debt from determining its proportion; and iii) the differentiated influence of the family ownership factor on the decision to use long-term d...

Serrasqueiro, Zélia; Nunes, Paulo; Vidigal da Silva, Jacinto

Dionísio, Andreia; Menezes, Rui; Mendes, Diana; Vidigal da Silva, Jacinto

Branco, Manuel Couret; Carvalho, Maria Leonor da Silva; Rego, Maria da Conceição; Galego, Maria Aurora; Mira, Natércia; Henriques, Pedro Damião de Sousa

A expressão grega oikos nomos que deu origem à palavra economia significa a ordem, a regra da casa.

Uma economia ocupada apenas com o destino mais eficaz a dar aos meios de que dispõe não parece, co...


A two-part fractional regression model for the financial leverage decisions of ...

Ramalho, Joaquim J.S.; Vidigal da Silva, Jacinto

In this paper we examine the following two hypotheses which traditional theories of capital structure are relatively silent about: (i) the determinants of financial leverage decisions are different for micro, small, medium and large firms; and (ii) the factors that determine whether or not a firm issues debt are different from those that determine how much debt it issues. Using a binary choice model to explain ...
