摘要
The purpose of this study is to determine the influence of family ownership and family control on a firm's dividend policy of publicly listed firms in Indonesia and Malaysia. This study applied the generalized least square panel data over 2003-2016 and considering the period of global financial crisis 2008-2010. The results show that a firm with a higher percentage of family ownership pays more dividend compared to non-family firms. The same effect applies to the percentage of family control. In contrast, we found that higher debt levels will reduce the dividend payment. These findings indicate that dividend distribution can be used as a policy to lessen agency problems of listed firms.
