This study cites the Generalized Moment Method (GMM) panel model to estimate the speed of adjustment value by. We found that firms in Indonesia are proven to adjust their capital structures to reach their optimal leverage ratios. Both use book leverage and market leverage, in observing all sectors and in split sectoral observations.
