Abstract

In the present study, we investigate the influence of corporate governance quality on the dividend policy of Asian emerging markets. First, we assess the level of corporate governance quality through a comprehensive index comprised of the combined board governance attributes (board of directors, ownership status, and progressive practices) and firm fundamentals through attributes of financial ratios. Then, using a sample of non-financial firms from the stock exchanges of the respective emerging markets (China, India, and Pakistan), our results depict firms' corporate governance quality as a relevant factor for dividend pay-out.
