Abstract

El estudio de la estructura de capital es uno de los tópicos financieros de mayor impacto, puesto que entre las teorías que intentan explicarla todavía no se ha llegado a un consenso sobre las determinantes y el comportamiento de las decisiones de financiamiento en las empresas. La investigación sobre el comportamiento de la estructura de capital en las empresas de tamano medio y pequeno es un asunto aún más complejo, pues los modelos tradicionales son aplicables principalmente a empresas que se cotizan en los mercados de capitales o son de interés público. Para este trabajo se seleccionaron las medianas empresas en el departamento de Boyacá en Colombia como población por estudiar, aplicando un modelo que se ha utilizado en casos similares en otros países; se demostró empíricamente la preferencia por la financiación con recursos propios antes que con deuda, la cual, a su vez, se prefirió por las empresas con mayor volatilidad en su rentabilidad y por las de mayor crecimiento.
