20.500.12556/RUL-137459 Firm characteristics, debt maturity structure, and innovation performance of small firms Based on a large sample of 497 small Slovenian manufactory firms and applying structural equation modeling, we investigate the relationship between six different firm characteristics (firm legal status, firm age, assets tangibility, cash flow, long-term financing of long-term assets and inventories ratio, and the quick ratio) and debt maturity structure of small firms in terms of short-term debt and long-term debt. In addition, we uncover the relationship between debt maturity structure and innovation performance of small firms. The results of our study point to the importance of external financial sources for firm innovation performance and to the relevance of specific firm characteristics to explain debt maturity structure of small firms. enterprises innovatons financing firm characteristics debt maturity structure small firms innovation short‐term debt long‐term debt podjetje inovacije financiranje true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2022-06-17 13:11:46 2022-06-17 13:15:29 2022-09-15 04:15:11 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2022 0 0 Str. 3-15 iss. 1 Vol. 11 2022 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 005 2232-5867 10.17708/DRMJ.2022.v11n01a01 109951235 Firm_characteristics,_debt_maturity_structure,_and_innovation_performance_of_small_firms.pdf Firm_characteristics,_debt_maturity_structure,_and_innovation_performance_of_small_firms.pdf 1 7155FCE756AF9B738A5A8902925746B1 47f00f66f1e00d09084ac34421fdeae0053d14a6298c3010811aa3a16722e8a1 6bde8c94-ee2e-11ec-8aca-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=157408 https://sam-d.si/en/revija/firm-characteristics-debt-maturity-structure-and-innovation-performance-of-small-firms/?doing_wp_cron=1653315564.0725231170654296875000 0 79b7efc2-ee2e-11ec-8aca-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=157409 Ekonomska fakulteta 0 0 0
