The aim of this study is to examine the determinants of capital expenditures in terms of ownership structure of firms (Foreign ownership and institutional ownership) and some-firm specific characteristics using Turkish listed companies and is to provide insightful evidence to the corporate governance literature about an emerging market.<\/p>\n\n\nDesign\/Methodology\/Approach
<\/strong>Panel data estimation procedure was mainly conducted to test the hypotheses. To robust the main estimation results, quantile estimation procedure based on the asset size of each firm\/year was employed. Besides, we tested the changing point for listing duration and size by using the squares of the related variables and re-run the model for the crisis years.<\/p>\n\n\nFindings<\/strong>
The findings revealed that institutional and foreign ownership do not affect the companies\u2019 capital expenditure behavior in terms of net capital expenditures. Besides, the outcomes showed that companies\u2019 size, cash flows from operating and tobin\u2019s q (i.e. firm value) positively affects the capital expenditure behaviors, however net margin and listing duration decrease the net capital expenditures. On the other hand, when we divided our sample quintiles based on the asset size of each firm, the results show that the companies\u2019 behavioral difference depend on the companies\u2019 size. The results also indicated that the financial crisis affected the capital expenditure behavior of the companies traded in Borsa \u0130stanbul.<\/p>\n\n\nOriginality\/ Value
