As a developing country, Indonesia's capital market is relatively large and has its own characteristics which are reflected in investor behavior and government regulations in the capital market. Indonesia, in its behavior in the capital market adheres to a civil law system, meaning that investors are given the widest freedom to conduct transactions in the capital market, especially in the wrong amount owned by investors. The variables used to analyze dividend policy are profitability, free cash flows, firm size and leverage.
