Quantile Regression Method

We empirically investigate the impact of capital structure on bank profitability using a quantile regression method in the Vietnamese banking system during 2007–2019. Our results suggest that the nonlinear relationship between capitalization and bank profitability is only significant at the 90th quantile. This is the first study to conclude that the turning point of capital ratio increases throughout the profitability distribution. Our findings thus suggest that a continuous increase in bank capital requirements does not necessarily result in higher bank profitability.

The major perspective of this paper is to provide more evidence regarding how “quickly”, in different macroeconomic states, firms adjust their capital structure to their leverage targets. This study extends the empirical research on the topic of capital structure by focusing on a quantile regression model to investigate the behavior of firm-specific and macroeconomic factors across all quantiles of distribution of leverage (book leverage and market leverage). Therefore, depending on a partial adjustment model, we find that the adjustment speed fluctuated in different stages of book versus market leverage. Furthermore, while macroeconomic states change, we detect clear differentiations of the contribution and the effects of the firm-specific and the macroeconomic variables between market leverage and book leverage debt ratios. Consequently, we deduce that across different macroeconomic states the nature and maturity of borrowing influence the persistence and endurance of the relation between determinants and borrowing.

This study empirically examines the link between firm characteristics and leverage using the data of Vietnamese non-financial listed firms from 2006 to 2015. In addition to traditional panel data methods, we employ a conditional quantile regression that unveils the behavior of regressors throughout the leverage distribution. The results confirm the non-linear relationship between firm characteristics and leverage at different levels of debt.

Different Levels

Using data on 239 listed South African firms and covering the period 1996-2010, we apply a quantile regression approach to investigate the effect of capital structure determinants on leverage. The paper’s main contribution is to assess the effect of the predictor variables across the distribution of leverage. That is, does the effect of a capital structure determinant vary at different levels of leverage? With the exception of asset tangibility and age, whose effect increased with leverage, our results suggest that the importance of leverage determinants does not vary with leverage. This is an important result, as it suggests that for the case of South Africa, studies that estimate the correlates of leverage at the mean are still valid and appropriate.
