The population in the Lippo Group company is 12 and the population at the Bakrie Group company is 9. The sample of this study is that all companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange are 21 companies. Data analysis used panel data regression method with partial adjustment model approach.

Investment framework is one of the most significant components that impact the company’s value. Reliable funding choices for a company generally lead to a capital structure that increases the firm’s value (Abor, 2006). Early studies provide contradictory reviews about a company’s capital structure decisions. This paper investigates the partial adjustment model for a company’s target capital structure. The study also explores how companies operating in different sectors of Pakistani market adjust towards the target capital structure levels. The study also recognizes that an unanticipated share price change also have an effect on the target capital structure. The results indicate that companies do have target leverage and that their adjustment speed varies from sector to sector of the Pakistani market. A typical sector closes more than 50% of the gap between its actual and its target debt ratios within one year.

This research is a quantitative study that uses data: GDP, Gross Capital Formation, financial disclosure seen from the Chinn-Ito index for the period 2000-2017 in 5 ASEAN countries namely Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, and Thailand. Data were processed using panel data regression analysis and specifically for Indonesia, Partial Adjustment Model (PAM) regression was performed. The results of this study indicate that financial openness seen from the Chinn-Ito index has a negative and significant influence on the economic growth of ASEAN-5 countries. Capital flows have a positive and significant impact on the economic growth of ASEAN-5 countries. Meanwhile, the PAM (Partial Adjustment Model) regression model shows that capital flows have a positive and significant influence on Indonesia's economic growth both in the short and long term, while financial openness has a negative and significant impact on Indonesia's economic growth both in the short and long term.

This study aims to analyze heterogeneity of speed of adjustment on basic industry, consumer goods, and misceleeneous companies. The population in this study uses basic industry, consumer goods, and miscellenoeus companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2009-2018 period. The method of determining the sample using a pusposive sampling technique based on criteries determined by researchers. We employ two-step partial adjustment model and use measure of book leverage and firm characteristic; profitability, size, tangibility, and growth which has an influence leverage target to estimate speed of adjustment. For three industries, there is evidence of heterogeneity of speef adjustment. The result showed that speed of adjustment 24% of basic industry, 37.1% of consumer goods, and 27.3% of miscellaneous industry.
