Abstract
⺠We develop a dynamic panel threshold model to test the dynamic trade-off theory. ⺠Our model allows for both short- and long-run asymmetries in capital structure adjustments. ⺠We consistently estimate heterogeneous speeds of adjustment. ⺠We propose a bootstrap-based testing procedure for the threshold effect. ⺠Results provide UK evidence of asymmetries in adjustment towards target leverage.
