Resumen
The private security and surveillance sector in Latin America has experienced significant expansion driven by rising urban crime, changes in state security policies, and regional economic growth. This context generates increasing pressure on governments and private organizations to respond to new threats and a sustained demand for protection services. However, the sector's dynamism coexists with financial challenges stemming from technological transformation, intensified operational risk, and the need to modernize service delivery models. In this scenario, capital structure emerges as a key factor for competitiveness, since an inadequate configuration can affect business valuation, financial sustainability, and the ability to leverage new projects. Therefore, the search for an optimal capital architecture becomes a strategic imperative for companies in the sector. This thesis proposes a methodological framework aimed at evaluating financing alternatives from a comprehensive perspective, incorporating variables such as cost of capital, profitability, and operational risk. The analysis also highlights the importance of indicators such as financial leverage, liquidity, and economic performance as tools for assessing the viability and financial strength of organizations. Overall, the analysis demonstrates that a deep understanding of capital structure is not only necessary to meet the challenges of the environment but also to ensure sound financial decision-making in a sector characterized by its increasing complexity and social relevance.
