Abstract

This paper examines the relationships between ownership structure and capital structure for non-financial listed firms in Vietnam during the period 2007-2012. Although different approaches are applied in this research, all results from those models are consistent. The study finds that while foreign ownership has a negative impact on leverage, state ownership has a positive influence. Managerial ownership has a positive relation with debt level, while the effect of large ownership on debt level is not conclusive.
