7341777 Borsa Istanbul Review 2017 6 Pages PDF
Abstract
This study tests the validity of the free cash flow hypothesis in the context of firms traded on Borsa Istanbul. The study applies a panel regression to a data set composed of 1267 observations from 227 companies during the period 2008-2014. The results reveal a significant, negative correlation between dividends per share and free cash flow. Likewise, a significant, inverse relationship is found between leverage and free cash flow. Thus, the results support the free cash flow hypothesis.
