ABSTRACT
The purpose of this Dissertation is to investigate the course of the Greek construction
companies during the crisis. Through the analysis of the companies J & P AVAX SA, GEKTERNA
SA, EDRASI-PSALLIDAS SA, EKTER SA and ELLAKTOR SA, the
Dissertation attempts to explain how the companies examined face the unstable socioeconomic
environment and whether their capital structure was affected. The applied
methodology includes quantitative analysis with the collection of secondary data from the
published consolidated financial statements and financial ratio analysis for the period 2008-
2017.
The Dissertation concludes that the financial crisis has affected the capital structure of
Greek construction companies, which significantly increased their loan funds while
reducing equity. However, the positive prospects of the Greek economy for the years 2018-
2019 are expected to contribute to the realization of new large construction projects in
concert with the improvement of the climate investment as a result of the new development
law.
The findings of the Dissertation may serve both to the administrations of the construction
companies under investigation, as well as the financial analysts, investors, and all
stakeholders.
