Öz

Firmaların nakit fazlalığı ve nakit yetersizliği durumunda ortaya çıkabilecek maliyetleri azaltarak piyasa değerini arttıracak optimum nakit tutarının belirlenmesinde farklı yaklaşımlar uyguladıkları görülmektedir. Bu çalışmada, 2005-2015 yılları arasında Borsa İstanbul BİST ’de işlem gören reel sektör firmalarının nakit ve net nakit bulundurma düzeyinde yıllar itibariyle meydana gelen değişimler sermaye yapısı teorilerinden dengeleme teorisi ve finansal hiyerarşi teorisi kapsamında açıklanmıştır. Çalışmanın bulguları, ilgili dönemde reel sektör firmalarının nakit bulundurma düzeyinin genel ortalamaya yaklaştığını, firmaların nakit tutmanın fayda ve maliyetini dikkate alarak hedef nakit düzeyine sahip olduklarını ve dengeleme teorisine uygun hareket ettiklerini göstermektedir. Ayrıca, optimum nakit düzeyinin belirlenmesinde sektörel faktörlerin belirgin rol oynadığını göstermektedir.
