Abstract

Changes in corporate capital structure were often considered on a yearly basis. However, to more deeply evaluate the fluctuations in corporate capital structure, we collected quarterly panel data of 180 enterprised listed on the Hochiminh Stock Exchange (HoSe, Vietnam) for researching. Regression techniques such as Pooled-OLS, FEM, REM and GLS were used to test the impact of a number of factors on the fluctuation of the capital structure of enterprises listed on HoSE in the period 2015 - 2020. The results of regression analysis showed that profitability, asset turnover, firm size (asset scale), short-term debt ratio and long-term debt ratio showed a positive impact on capital structure fluctuations, meanwhile ROS, firm size (revenue scale), short-term asset ratio and net cash flow showes negative impact on capital structure fluctuations. The findings based on balanced panel data collected quarterly showed differences compared to some previous researches on the same topic, on the other hand, added empirical evidence on the statistically significant relationship of some factors to fluctuations of enterprise capital structure. The results suggested future research directions, continuing empirical researches to demonstrate the impact of regional factors, corporate governance, macro factors,... on fluctuation of capital structure or use an more effective scale of capital structure fluctuations.
