Purpose: In the scientific literature in Poland, but also in the world, there is a lack of publications defining the relationship occurring between the internationalization of the enterprise and the structure of financing. Therefore, the extent to which the various stages of internationalization of the enterprise defined according to the literature affect the capital structure was examined. It was investigated whether the sector of the business has an impact on the occurrence or non-occurrence of these relationships. Design/methodology/approach: To investigate this, the ratios of internationalization of sales and the share of debt in total company financing were compared, and Lillefors and Fisher- Snedecor statistical tests were applied to 44 construction industry companies listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange. The results of the research were compared with the results of studies previously conducted at home and abroad. Findings: It was shown that a statistically significant relationship between internationalization and changes in capital structure was found in the sector. It was found that the peculiarities of the construction sector indicate the high capital intensity of the internationalization process of these companies and the high dependence of the internationalization process and the formation of the capital structure of this process. Originality/value: The lack of research in this area demonstrates its originality. It has been shown in pilot studies conducted before the stage of target research for the following article that the specifics of the sector determine the dependence on the capital structure or the complete absence of this dependence.

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to examine the signaling theory of dividend policy in companies that are listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange. Design/methodology/approach: Based on the literature review of signaling theory in dividend policy, the research hypothesis was stated: There is no relationship between future earnings and current dividend payments in the financial statements of Warsaw listed companies during the studied period 2010-2021. Accordingly, an empirical model was built which consisted of an explanatory variable (dividend in subsequent years) and explanatory variables (earnings in subsequent years). In addition, a research questionnaire was conducted for individual investors who have been investing in the Warsaw Stock Exchange for more than one year. Findings: The estimation results of the econometric model confirmed that there is no relationship between the dividend paid and the profit of a given company. On the other hand, the survey results indicated that dividend policy is an important element in the decision-making process of individual investors in the stock market. Originality/value: The research in the paper is complementary in nature - the signaling theory in dividend policy was examined in a multifaceted manner - econometric testing of the model and qualitative research in the form of a survey among 100 investors.

Purpose: The aim of the article is to define the capital structure in Polish enterprises – in the group of enterprises exporting their products and in the group of enterprises that do not conduct export activities. Design/methodology/approach: 30 companies representing various sectors of the economy were taken into account for the preliminary research. In the first group of 15 companies that exported their products (the first stage of internationalization), the capital structure was examined, determining the level of financing with equity and foreign capital. The research scheme from the first group was also used in the second examined group – enterprises that do not export their products. Each surveyed group included a company that represented one selected sector. A case study for three Polish listed companies was also used. Findings: Thus, the view of foreign authors based on the results of their study that, in emerging markets countries, companies that have internationalised their activities have higher levels of indebtedness than companies operating only domestically, should not be considered as confirmed (for the time being on the example of pilot studies). Originality/value: The results of the preliminary research made it possible to identify the most important differences in the capital structure for companies that exported their products and companies that did not export.
