companies listed on Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange during the period 2007-2011 and w measures the level of the variables such as growth, leverage, leverage^2, risk, CEO n lo duality and size that impacted on performance of listed companies It utilizes a ad panel data of 93 Vietnamese listed companies and two methods accounting (ROA) y th ju and market (Tobin’s Q) to estimate the performance of firms It employs many yi models in panel data such as Pool regression, Random Effects Model (REM) and pl Fixed Effects Models (FEM) to control unobserved effects Three kinds of models al n ua are applied to find the most appropriate model and Fixed Effects Model is va considered the most suitable model for further discussions and recommendations n The findings of this thesis show the support for not only the results of empirical fu ll studies but also the trade off theory and stewardship theory Size factor is the most m oi significant support for two metrics of firm performance ROA and Tobin’s Q at 1% nh level The thesis also finds that there is existence of the optimal capital structure at z because of a non linear relationship between leverage and firm performance In z vb particular, at 22.77% value of the optimal capital structure, the performance of firm jm ht (measured by ROA) will get maximum value, or at 72.30% value of the optimal capital structure, the performance of firm (measured by Tobin’s Q) will get k gm maximum value Besides that, Growth and Risk are found to have effect at 1% significant level to ROA only Moreover, CEO duality just has effect to Tobin’s Q l.c om at 1% level of significance It is suitable in Vietnam condition because most of a Lu firms in Vietnam are family firms, therefore, there always has a phenomenon one person wears two hats It leads the firm operate more efficiently and effectively n n va when the chairman serves as the CEO y te re th iii t to TABLE OF CONTENTS ng hi ep Certification i Acknowledgements ii w iii n Abstract lo ad List of

channel for capital mobilization of the lo ad economy in developed countries as well as developing countries, thus the birth of ju y th the stock market in Vietnam plays a very important role in the attracting of domestic capital, foreign capital and also the socio-economic development yi pl Founded on July 20, 2000 with two listed companies, however, over one al n ua decade of operation at the end of 2011 there were 686 listed companies trading on va the Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange (HOSE) and Hanoi Stock Exchange (HNX) with n capitalization reached 464,036 billion VND To perform its role as a channel to fu ll mobilize capital for economic efficiency, listed companies on the stock market m oi themselves have to operate efficiently in order to create the trustworthiness from at nh shareholders as well as domestic and foreign investors Therefore, the performance z of listed companies plays an important role to keep the market stabilizing and z developing ht vb jm Determining which variables impacted on and how they affected to the k performance of listed enterprises is important because they will help not only the gm investors make right investing decisions but also the managers can know the and moreover, company can operate more effectively om l.c variables that have more significant influence on firm to manage more efficiently a Lu Currently, most research in Vietnam concentrates on issues affecting of the n th y rate, capitalization, risk and also corporate sectors This means the research subject: te re the internal matters of the business such as corporate governance, debt ratio, growth n research on the internal matters of business In contrast, this thesis only focuses on va macro variables to the performance of the company therefore it has
