Summary/Abstract: The effectiveness of investment and financing decisions has a decisive role in lowering the cost of capital and, ultimately in maximizing market value. It is significant and necessary to explore the impact of investing, financing decisions and relevant indicators on market value with considering firms' financial performance and protecting their sustainable competitive advantage. The objective of this paper is to examine the impact of investing and financing decisions on the market value and to determine in which direction these relevant decisions affect the market value. For this purpose, 274 real public sector firms, which are regularly accessible during 2010-2014 have been selected and panel data analysis have been utilized. Findings state that asset turnover rate, the rate of reinvestment variable which explain the investment decisions at the level of productivity, and the return on assets have a positive effect on the market value of the firms. Furthermore, debt turnover rate and the asset turnover rate which explain the investment decisions at the level of productivity negatively affect the market value, while the receivables turnover and stock turnover ratios have no effect. Additionally, capital structure and liquidity level representing financing decisions have been found no significant effect on the market value.
