The research attempts to explore how corporate governance and ownership structure affect capital structure in the context of an emerging economy like Vietnam by considering impact level of three groups of factors which are corporate governance, ownership structure and firm elements. Method of Multivariable Regression Analysis used with cross-panel data collected from 300 non-financial State-owned Enterprises (SOEs) in the period 2006-2012 shows that corporate governance and ownership structure measures have a significant impact on decision of capital structure of Vietnamese SOEs.
