RESIDUAL DIVIDEND
Residual dividend refers to a method of calculating dividends. The payment made by a company to its shareholders is a dividend. It is basically a portion of profits of the company that is divided among the people who own stocks in the company. A residual dividend policy is one where a company uses residual or leftover equity to fund dividend payments. Typically, this method of dividend payment creates volatility in the dividend payments that may be undesirable for some investors.
