    Este artículo analiza el impacto de una selección de atributos corporativos en la capitalización de mercado puesto que dichos atributos corporativos, la divulgación de la información corporativa y la capitalización de mercado podrían estar relacionados. En el estudio llevado a cabo en Bangladesh, utilizando empresas no financieras cotizadas, se ha detectado que el volumen de activos, la cifra de negocios, el número de accionistas y el grado de internacionalización son atributos corporativos que ejercen una influencia significativa en la capitalización de mercado de dichas empresas. Este hecho arroja nueva luz sobre la relación atributos corporativos-capitalización de mercado en Bangladesh, y sugiere que tanto los inversores actuales como los potenciales deberían poner atención a los anteriores atributos corporativos a la hora de tomar sus decisiones de inversión

    This study explores the influence of corporate attributes on market capitalization, based on the potential relationships between corporate attributes, corporate disclosure, and market capitalization. The study focused on non-financial listed companies in Bangladesh and uncovered several significant influences of corporate attributes, such as asset size, turnover, shareholders, and internationality, on market capitalization. This contribution provides new insights into corporate attributes and market capitalization, and suggests that existing and potential investors should assess corporate attributes while making investment decisions.
