Tóm tắt
Purpose – Corruption has been evidenced as one of the major factors that drive a firm’ s dynamics and growth. This study examines the relationship between corruption and financing structure decisions of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Vietnam. Design/methodology/approach – The authors use a longitudinal data set from the Vietnam’ s SME Survey in the period 2007–2013 and adopt the two-stage least squares method to deal with endogeneity. Findings – After controlling for endogeneity and firm heterogeneity, the authors find that, overall, corruption does significantly affect the decisions of financing sources. Given that, corruption increases the use of informal debt and decreases the levels of formal debt, owner’ s equity and retained earnings. Practical implications – The findings suggest implications for corruption-combating actions and policies. Originality/value – Different from previous studies that either provide evidence of government corruption and a firm’ s capital structure at the country level or focus on corruption and debt only, we deliver a more comprehensive analysis on the nexus between corruption and various financing sources.
