PANTOJA AGUILAR, Martín P.  and  RICO, Artemio Jiménez. Current paradigm of corporate governance and determinants of share issuance by Mexican companies. cuad.adm. [online]. 2024, vol.40, n.79, e2313521.  Epub Aug 30, 2024. ISSN 0120-4645.  https://doi.org/10.25100/cdea.v40i79.13521.

This research analyzed the issuance of shares by all Mexican companies that were listed on the Mexican Stock Exchange (MSE) during the 2012-2022 period to determine if they continue to maintain the paradigm of corporate control through ownership of the highest percentage of shares among family members and their close circles. Additionally, the extent to which the variables of company age, sales level, and business sector are determinants of using the issuance of shares as a source of financing was evaluated. The methodology applied included a comprehensive analysis of the percentage of issuance of new shares, a Pearson’s correlational analysis, a simple linear regression, a linear binomial analysis, and the ANOVA model. The results showed that although a few MSE companies have begun to issue shares, the level of issuance is still lower and does not constitute evidence of a paradigm change. Concerning the variables of age, sales, and business sector, it was found that there is insufficient evidence that these variables are determinants of MSE companies that issue shares as a financing method.
