Relation between firm diversification and the value of corporate cash holding for firms accepted in stock market

Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 10, Issue 2

Abstract

This paper is aimed at investigating relation between firm diversification and the value of corporate cash holding. To this end, data obtained from the firms accepted in stock market for the years 1385 to 1390 is used. Results have shown that there is a reverse relation between firm diversification and value of cash. On the other hand, firm diversification leads to less value of cash. These studies have shown that for constrained firms the value of cash holding is more than in unconstrained firms. Also, results have indicated that for firms with higher corporate governance, the value of cash holding is higher than for firms with lower corporate governance. On the other hand, firm diversification for firms with lower corporate governance leads to lesser value of cash holding. It is possible to conclude that in case of firm diversification, lower governance leads to loss of resources and higher leverage usage.
