This study is attempt to extend the body of knowledge by analyzing the factors that influence the leverage performance of the company by using industry, firm size and inflation rate in Malaysian market as the independent variables. The Single Linear Regression (SLR) and Multiple Linear Regression (MLR) approaches have been applied to measure the significant relationship between industry, firm size, inflation rate and leverage performance from 2005 until 2009.
