This is the first exhaustive volume on dividends and corporate governance. The book provides new empirical evidence on the Continental European corporate governance system -- a largely under-researched system -- and its impact on dividends. Focusing on one of its representatives of this system, Germany, major differences between German dividends and UK or US ones are highlighted. The book's conclusions have important implications for the current debate on corporategovernance systems.
