The purpose of the study is to examine the effect of national culture on corporate payout mix policy (dividends and share repurchases). Using an extensive data set covering 55 countries during 1980–2018, we find that the national cultural dimension significantly affects the payout policy mix, choice, and levels. Firms in countries with high uncertainty avoidance, masculinity, long-term orientation, and indulgence vs. restraint are inclined to pay out through share repurchases. In contrast, firms in countries with low uncertainty avoidance, masculinity, long-term orientation, and indulgence vs. restraint tend to pay out through dividends. Our findings are robust to control for firm and country characteristics, alternative payout ratios, different culture proxies, sub-period samples, and subsamples.
期刊介绍：
International trade, financing and investments have grown at an extremely rapid pace in recent years, and the operations of corporations have become increasingly multinationalized. Corporate executives buying and selling goods and services, and making financing and investment decisions across national boundaries, have developed policies and procedures for managing cash flows denominated in foreign currencies. These policies and procedures, and the related managerial actions of executives, change as new relevant information becomes available. The purpose of the Journal of Multinational Financial Management is to publish rigorous, original articles dealing with the management of the multinational enterprise. Theoretical, conceptual, and empirical papers providing meaningful insights into the subject areas will be considered. The following topic areas, although not exhaustive, are representative of the coverage in this Journal. • Foreign exchange risk management • International capital budgeting • Forecasting exchange rates • Foreign direct investment • Hedging strategies • Cost of capital • Managing transaction exposure • Political risk assessment • International working capital management • International financial planning • International tax management • International diversification • Transfer pricing strategies • International liability management • International mergers.
