Abstract

Corporate governance and finance are heavily influenced by capital structure, which greatly affects equity returns and the risks associated with the owner. Since CEOs are an important asset of a company and have a considerable role in decision-making and other functions, investigating the issue from their stance is decisive to yield valuable outcomes. Therefore, this study examines the impact of CEOs' personal, functional, and educational characteristics on the capital structure behavior of Jordanian non-financial firms listed on the Amman Stock Exchange (ASE) between 2010 and 2014.
