Abstract: Companies’ turnover, value added and profitability all rose in 2015. Conversely, corporate investment continued to decline. In a low interest rate environment, the debt ratio of large enterprises increased, while that of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and intermediate-sized enterprises (ISEs) contracted. Financial profitability improved significantly.
