1. Co-insurance effect: Combining businesses with international firms provides reduction in operating risk and thereby increase debt capacity. This helps MNCs to include more debts in their capital structure.
2. Transaction cost theory. Internationalization is a way of internatilize intangible assets. Since intangible assets are not difficult to sale , international diversification helps MNCs to exploit their intangible assets. So MNCs with an eye of international diversification will try to develop these type of assets in their asset base.

Growth opportunities and debt ratios are inversely proportional .MNCs with higher growth opportunities will rely on equity rather than debt.
