摘要
股利政策对公司价值的影响、信号传递效应、股东财富效应3种股利分配动因与股利决策存在显著的正相关关系,降低代理成本效应对股利决策影响不显著。上市公司管理层股利决策的动因在于通过股利分配政策影响股票价格,传递公司盈利能力和发展前景的内部信息,帮助投资者实现超额收益,增加股东财富。而降低代理成本并不是他们分配股利的目的。
Basing on credibility and valid tests for questionnaires, the paper studies how motivations of paying out dividends influence managers' dividend decisions by Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). We discover that there are significant positive correlations among dividend decisions and value effect, informational effect, shareholders' wealth effect. While there is little correlation between dividend decisions and reducing agent cost effect. Managers want to pay out dividends to influence market value of firm, and transfer information about firm, and improve shareholders' wealth. They don't want to reduce agent cost by paying out dividends.
