摘要
This study examines the empirical determinants of debt maturity structure across the size of Spanish firms. Our evidence offers support for the relevance of growth opportunities, size, asymmetric information and asset to maturity to explain debt maturity structure. The paper also provides evidence regarding the differences in explanations according to firm size. It is shown that debt maturity in small firms is higher when the slope of the interest rate term structure increases and for very low-risk and very risky firms.
