Economics and Business Letters, 2019, vol. 8, issue 3, 130-137

Abstract: This paper documents asymmetric impact of various board characteristics on capital structure in six European countries (Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Luxembourg and Netherlands) during the period between 2008 and 2014. Quintile regression estimates show asymmetric impact of independence of board’s audit committee, presence of CEO in the board, and Chairmanship of Ex-CEO on capital structure at 10 th and 90 th quintile.
