Dividend policy, ,Technological corporation, MalaysiaAbstract
Malaysia is a developing country, and the capital market is evolving here more than in other emerging markets. Literature on dividend policy has generated extensive theoretical and empirical research, but no broad consensus has emerged after decades of research. The sole determination of this study is to determine the factors affecting the dividend policy of technology stocks listed in Bursa Malaysia. The paper attempts to present the primary studies on dividend policy to provide a thorough understanding of technology corporations’ payout practices in Malaysia and reaches inconclusive evidence.
