This study aims to examine whether or not family control benefiting the internal and external governance mechanism mitigate agency problems affecting dividends in a capital market environment improve investor protection such as Indonesia. The quantitative analysis model was used test hypotheses based on panel data of 58 firms listed from 2012 2019, random effect technique (pooled EGLS). finding...

It is generally conceded that dividend pricing models are poor predictors of asset prices. This finding is sometimes attributed to excess volatility or to a dividend process manipulated by firm managers. In this paper, we present rather powerful panel tests of the dividend pricing relation using a unique data set in which dividends are set by market forces independent of managers’ preferences. ...

Error-correction models for cointegrated economic variables are commonly interpreted as reflecting partial adjustment of one variable to another. We show that error-correction models may also arise because one variable forecasts another. Reduced-form estimates of error-correction models cannot be used to distinguish these interpretations. In an application, we show that the estimated coefficien...

We study two types of robust contracting problem under hidden action in continuous time. In type I problem, the principal is ambiguous about the project cash flows, while he is ambiguous about the agent’s beliefs in type II problem. The principal designs a robust contract that maximizes his utility under the worst-case scenario subject to the agent’s incentive and participation constraints. We ...

In the context of an asset paying affine-type discrete dividends, we present closed analytical approximations for the pricing of European vanilla options in the Black-Scholes model with time-dependent parameters. They are obtained using a stochastic Taylor expansion around a shifted lognormal proxy model. The final formulae are respectively first, second and third order approximations w.r.t. th...

We consider an overlapping generations model à la Diamond (1965) with two additional ingredients: altruism and an asset (or land) bringing non-stationary positive dividends (or fruits). We study the global dynamics of capital stocks and asset values as well as the interplay between them. Asset price bubbles are also investigated.

the current study aims to investigate the relationship between stock liquidity risk and financial information quality criteria (i.e. the timely dividends announcement, accruals quality and the percentage of profitability prediction error) of companies listed on the tehran stock exchange. for this purpose, 148 cases of data from listed companies, collected from 2007 to 2012, were employed in ord...

Equity Payout is ‘Net dividends of nonfarm, nonfinancial business’ (Table F.102, line 3), plus ‘Net dividends of farm business’ (Table F.7, line 24), minus ‘Net increase in corporate equities of nonfinancial business’ (F.101, line 35), minus ‘Proprietors’ net investment of nonfinancial business’ (F.101, line 39). Debt Repurchase is the negative of ‘Net increase in credit markets instruments of ...

For a general class of risk models, the dividends-penalty identity is derived by probabilistic reasoning. This identity is the key for understanding and determining the optimal dividend barrier, which maximizes the difference between the expected present value of all dividends until ruin and the expected discounted value of a penalty at ruin (which is typically a function of the deficit at ruin...

As the centerpiece of its “growth package,” the Bush Administration proposes to eliminate taxes that individuals pay on dividend payments they receive from corporations. These dividends would receive tax-free treatment to the extent that they have been paid from profits subject to the corporate income tax. For individuals who hold shares in companies that do not pay dividends, the proposal woul...
