This research was conducted to investigate the factors affecting the company’s capital expenditure. Data were collected from the firms listed on Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange (HOSE) over the period of nine years from 2010 to 2018, including the sample of 192 non-financial listed companies. Three statistical approaches were employed to address econometrics issues and to improve the accuracy of the regression coefficients: Random Effects Model (REM), Fixed Effects Model (FEM) and Generalized Method of Moments (GMM). The results show that free cash flows and firm size influenced positively on capital expenditure. By contrast, other factors such as dividend, interest expenses, depreciation and working capital had negative effects on capital expenditure. Based on the research results, some key intuitive recommendations were proposed for managers and investors in order to help them in making decisions.

Financial management faces 3 important decisions, namely funding, investment and dividends. The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of the fundamental factors such as leverage in financial management. Leverage is one of the factors of funding, investment and dividends that interdependently affect the value of the company. The method used in this study uses 2SLS (two-stage least square). There are 4 (four) equations in this study, namely the equation of leverage, investment, dividend and company value. Interdependence is shown based on leverage, investment and dividends. In the interdependence equation leverage, investment and dividends not only on one side act as endogenous variables but also act as exogenous variables on the equation of the company values. The results of the research on leverage equations show that investment affects leverage but dividends do not affect leverage. The investment equation shows the results of both leverage and dividend variables would not affect investment decision. Dividend equation also shows that leverage and investment variables also do not affect dividends. Moreover, the results of the company value equation show that the leverage variable would not affect the value of the company. But in-vestment and dividend variables affect the value of the company. The conclusion of this study is that there was a mutually influential relationship between the three variables of financial management before influencing company value.

This study aimed to demonstrate the impact of the financial policy, represented in debt policy and dividend policy, and the capital assets on the financial performance measured by return on equity, total assets turnover and market value added of 53 service companies listed on the Amman stock exchange during the period 2014–2018, using the panel data models. According to the results of testing performed on return on equities (ROE) model, total assets turnover (TAT) model, and market value added (MVA) model, it can be concluded that debt policy has a negative significant effect on market value added and total assets turnover, on the other hand, it has a negative insignificant effect on return on equity. The financial performance of the Jordanian service companies is influenced negatively by the debt ratio as a measure of financial policy; which means service companies are using heavy debt to finance the operating activities, which increases financial cost and the risk of financial failure. The study recommended that service companies can increase the volume of investment in fixed assets to generate high financial performance indicators.

This paper was conducted to examine the relationship between dividend policy and share price volatility of companies listed on Hochiminh Stock Exchange (HOSE) in Vietnam. Data set used in this research was compiled from financial statements of 260 listed firms on HOSE from 2009 to 2018. Three statistical approaches employed to address econometrics issues as well as to improve the accuracy of the regression coefficients like fixed effects model (FEM), random effects model (REM) and general method of movement (GMM). Based on the results from GMM, the association between share price volatility and dividend yield, dividend payout ratio has been explored. The findings show a positive relationship between dividend yield and stock price volatilities and a negative relationship between dividend payout ratio and stock price volatility. In addition, it is found that a firm’s growth rate, leverage and earnings volatility had positive influences on share price volatility while firm’s size had negative effect on share price volatility.

Dividend policy plays an important role for maintaining good image of company in the capital market and in providing source of low cost finance for financing for the profitable future investment proposals. In the present study, an attempt has been made to evaluate the dividend policy adopted by some selected public and private sector banks in India during the period of study March 2006 to March 2015.
