Abstract

L'objectif de cet article est de mieux cerner le rôle de l'endettement comme variable de contrôle du comportement managérial, pour les firmes dégageant du free cash-flow. L'endettement est supposé être une variable d'action utilisée par les actionnaires pour s'approprier la valeur. Les tests ont permis d'apprécier si les actionnaires exercent un contrôle sur les décisions managériales, en contraignant le dirigeant dans ses choix de financement.
