This paper analyzes the determinants of the capital structure for a panel of 106 Swiss companies listed in the Swiss stock exchange.

We use the Adjusted Present Value (APV) method with Monte Carlo simulations for real estate valuation purposes. Monte Carlo simulations make it possible to incorporate the uncertainty of valuation parameters, in particular of future cash flows, of discount rates and of terminal values. We use...

In this paper, we analyze the determinants of the capital structure for a panel of 106 Swiss companies listed in the Swiss stock exchange. Both static and dynamic tests are performed for the period 1991-2000. It is found that the size of companies, the importance of tangible assets and business...

The paper explores the institutional context as a driving force of cash holdings, focusing on the role of ownership concentration, voting rights, growth opportunities, and information asymmetries. For this purpose, we use a sample of 128 Swiss firms for the period 1990-2000 as Swiss firms are...

"In this paper, we analyse the determinants of the capital structure for a panel of 104 Swiss companies listed in the Swiss stock exchange. Dynamic tests are performed for the period 1991-2000. It is found that the size of companies and the importance of tangible assets are positively related to...
