The use of a latent class in the specification of the model, allowed detecting two groups of firms according to their specific characteristics: the firm size, the leverage, the dividend yield, and the return on equity (ROE). The results of affectation equation show that the probability to be in the second group (the most efficient) is more important when the firm size, the dividend yield, and the ROE are high, while a high leverage level decreases the chance to be in the first group (the less efficient).展开更多
