Spanish Abstract: El objetivo de este trabajo es estudiar las Teorias de la Estructura de Capital para detectar aquellas variables que pueden determinar el nivel de endeudamiento elegido por una empresa. Para ello se examina la naturaleza y dificultades financieras de las pymes, y se realiza una comparativa con la piramide de Maslow para mostrar la vertiente psicologica de la estructura de capital de las companias. Estos argumentos posteriormente son contrastados con un analisis empirico de las pymes de la Comunidad Valenciana, complementado con varias entrevistas a pymes valencianas para conocer la opinion y experiencia de las personas mas cercanas a estas. Entre otras cosas, se concluye que es de gran complejidad revelar un patron de variables que determinen la estructura de capital de las pymes, ya que una parte importante de esa estructura esta definida por lo que hemos denominado “la psicologia financiera” de la empresa.English Abstract: The aim of this work is to study the Capital Structure Theories in order to figure out those variables which can determine the debt level chosen by a company. For this purpose, it analyses the small and medium enterprises nature and its financial problems, and it makes a comparison with Maslow’s pyramid for displaying the psychological aspect of the firm’s capital structure. These arguments are subsequently contrasted with an empirical analysis of the SMEs from the Comunidad Valenciana, complemented by several interviews with SMEs from Valencia so as to know the opinion and experience of those ones who are closer to them. Among other things, it is concluded that revealing a pattern of variables which determines the SME’s capital structure is highly complex, as an important part of that structure is defined by what we have named “the financial psychology” of a company.
