To this end, the data observed in the Economática database for a sample of 29 companies were considered. Then, through a long panel data model, the study concludes that in the organizations reviewed, there is a degree of association between the variables “short-term liabilities” and “share price”, as the former increases by 1%, and the value of the shares increases by 0.09% in the subsequent period. This confirms a procyclical financial leverage. © 2022 by the authors.enFinancial crisesFinancing policy and company valueFluctuations and economic cyclesIllegal conductInappropriate Corporate Strategies: Latin American Companies That Increase Their Value by Short-Term LiabilitiesArtículoAtribución 4.0 Internacional (CC BY 4.0)10.3390/su142416368
