Abstract
The study analysed the impact of financing patterns (FPs) on the financial performance of 226 listed small and medium enterprises (SMEs). Firm size, age, liquidity, sales growth (SG), and asset tangibility (AT) are treated as firm-specific control variables. The result indicates that total debt financing (TDF), short-term financing, and trade credit financing have a significant relationship with Return on Asset (ROA), whereas long-term debt financing (LTDF) does not. Further, Return on Equity (ROE) is used to confirm the robustness of the result and demonstrate the same direction of the relationship with financing. Thus, the study provides an illustrative description of relationships and helps in developing an understanding of accessing the future financial needs of SMEs.
期刊介绍：
IIMB Management Review (IMR) is a quarterly journal brought out by the Indian Institute of Management Bangalore. Addressed to management practitioners, researchers and academics, IMR aims to engage rigorously with practices, concepts and ideas in the field of management, with an emphasis on providing managerial insights, in a reader friendly format. To this end IMR invites manuscripts that provide novel managerial insights in any of the core business functions. The manuscript should be rigorous, that is, the findings should be supported by either empirical data or a well-justified theoretical model, and well written. While these two requirements are necessary for acceptance, they do not guarantee acceptance. The sole criterion for publication is contribution to the extant management literature.Although all manuscripts are welcome, our special emphasis is on papers that focus on emerging economies throughout the world. Such papers may either improve our understanding of markets in such economies through novel analyses or build models by taking into account the special characteristics of such economies to provide guidance to managers.
