أثر هيكل رأس المال على أداء الشركات الصناعية الليبية : دراسة تطبيقية على عينة من الشركات الصناعية الليبية خلال الفترة 2001- 2014

Abstract EN

This study aims to test the impact of the capital structure on the performance of Libyan industrial companies, The models were estimated to test the hypotheses of the study using multiple regression analysis in Ordinary Least squares method (OLS).

The results indicates that there is a significant positive effect of the variable growth ratio in the assets (GROW) on companies performance measured by the Earning Power (EP), Assets Turnover Ratio (ASTUR) also obtained a relative strong relationship with performance measures, and gave an overview of the company's performance and their level of activity, This result was consistent with the correlation relationships shown by the Spearman correlation matrix (Correlation Spearman(.

On the other hand, the results indicated that there was no significant effect of debt to equity ratio on all performance measures.

This result is unexpected and is inconsistent with the features of the financial leverage that assumes a positive relationship exists between debt ratio and performance indicators.
