Our findings suggest that strong corporate governance practice enforce the usage of lower debt financing to promote firms’ performance. This finding provides important implications for investors and policymakers. Our conclusion still unchanged before and after the global oil prices drop and after applying alternative methodology. | Corporate debt choice and board size: The case of oil exporting economy
