Abstract

Following the outbreak of the Asian Financial Crisis 1997, the issue of overleveraged became important as several highly leveraged firms in ASEAN declared bankruptcy or were rescued by the governments while the financial institutions became preoccupied with the non performing loans. The ASEAN countries soon realized the importance of sustaining future growth and development through resourceful financing and thereby have undergone several phases of financial reforms in the last decade to strengthen their capital market and financial. market. In light of this development, it is of interest to inquire whether the reforms have successfully provided the firms with incentives and financing facilities to adopt an optimizing behavior in their financing mode
