Abstract:

The determinants of corporate dividend policy remain controversial despite half a century of active research. Over that time a number of competing theories of dividend policy have been proposed, but no consensus has been reached about their explanatory power. This thesis examines the determinants of dividend policy of publicly quoted companies in Jordan as a case study of an emerging market. The study uses a firm-level panel data set of all publicly traded firms on the Ammam Stock Exchange between 1989 and 2000. Nine research hypotheses are developed, which are used to represent the main theor

The main aim of this doctoral thesis is to carry the dividend debate into an emerging market context, and contribute more evidence to dividend literature.

Accordingly, therefore, attempting to uncover what behaviour the dividend policy of this emerging market shows.

Abstract:

The impact of dividend announcements on firm value represents one of the longest standing puzzles in the literature of modern finance. Based on either a behavioural or empirical approach, studies have provided rationales to address the issue of why companies pay dividends and whether the market response to the announcements can be predicted. However, these studies have failed to resolve the dividend puzzle, as no single convincing explanation about the observed dividend behaviour of firms has emerged. Moreover, most of these studies have been conducted in countries with developed capital marke

Abstract:

This study investigates the potential role of ownership structure as a determinant of the corporate dividend policy. A firm's dividend policy is modelled as the outcome of a voting game among groups of asymmetrically informed shareholders, who also have different marginal tax rates for dividend income. The outcome of the voting game is determined by the relative voting powers of these shareholder groups. Voting power is denned as the probability that a particular block of shares will be pivotal in determining the outcome of the voting game. Using Shapley values as instruments for shareholder

Managerial extrapolation is different from managerial overconfidence, although they both belong to managerial overreaction.

Abstract:

The issue of dividends and what role it plays, has been the subject of discussion for decades. The main reason for this is that the chosen dividend policy for a company affects several different stakeholders, with shareholders being the most affected party. Determining dividend policy is influenced by multiple factors such as capital structure, potential stakeholder signaling and corporate culture concerning payouts. This study will investigate how the relationship between firm performance and stock price is affected by the level of dividends a firm pays. To explore this relationship, the auth

This study is an empirical examination of a new theory that links dividends to institutional ownership in a framework of both information signaling and agency costs.

This is based on the premise that institutions are considered sophisticated investors with superior ability and stronger incentive to be informed about the firm quality compared to retail investors.

Prior studies illustrate two opposing threads: managerial overconfidence might be negatively correlated with dividend payout due to reserving internal cash for promising investment; managerial overconfidence might be positively correlated with dividend payout due to managers’ optimism about firm’s capability of generating stable and sufficient cash flows. The empirical results support the

Managers usually treat dividend payout policy as a method to convey information about the earnings prospect of firm to investors, debtholders, and other stakeholders and use it as a tool to manipulate stock price. This study explores the impact of dividend payout policy on future earnings response coefficient. For a panel of firms publicly list

Based on the agency theory proposed by La Porta et al. (2000), we consider two controversial hypotheses: the outcome and substitute hypotheses to discuss whether Taiwan’s dividend policy is used to solve agency problem. Different from the traditional corporate governance, we create an “abnormal corporate governance index” by controlling the characteristics of CEOs and firms and see how it affects dividend policy.

Abstract:

The determinants of corporate dividend policy remain controversial despite half a century of active research. Over that time a number of competing theories of dividend policy have been proposed, but no consensus has been reached about their explanatory power. This thesis examines the determinants of dividend policy of publicly quoted companies in Jordan as a case study of an emerging market. The study uses a firm-level panel data set of all publicly traded firms on the Ammam Stock Exchange between 1989 and 2000. Nine research hypotheses are developed, which are used to represent the main theor

碩士<br>國立東華大學<br>國際經濟研究所<br>94<br>This paper applies stock characteristics, logit regressions and catering incentives to explore why dividend policy in the Taiwan stock market is changing. First, firms with different dividend policies have their own characteristics. Second, firms have become less likely to pay stock dividends and more likely to pay dividends after controlling for characteristics. Finally, the payout ratio and real dividends are increasing for dividend-paying firms, but both are declining for stock dividend payers after 1997. As a result, the trends in dividend policies are inde
