The financial decision making is a crucial area of corporate finance. It has always
received high attention from academics as well from policy makers. It is assumed that the
companies with higher shareholding by its owners distribute more dividends. Even it is
also assumed that the companies with higher institutional shareholding distribute more
dividends to please them. This contradiction encouraged researcher to undergo the study.
This study attempts to explore the impact of ownership structure on dividend payout,
investment and financing policy of listed firms. By employing the data of 239 listed firms
as sample for the time period 2010-2017, this study inclines towards finding whether
owners and institutional shareholding make a significant difference in financial decisions
(dividend payouts, capital structure & investment) or not. The findings reveal that the
companies with higher owner’s shareholding tend to pay better dividends as well as
invest more capital. Moreover, firms with higher profitability make better investment and
dividend policies
