Ver documento

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:In this paper, I analyse the effects unionization rates have on US public companies’ capital structure, in particular, the leverage and cash to assets ratios, prior and during the Covid crisis, in order to determine whether these effects are intensified or mitigated in the presence of the crisis. Furthermore, I investigate whether union density, financial distress and profitability(considered individually)lead to similar or contrasting, more or less pronounced, effects.
