Abstract

In September 2015, China issued a differentiated tax reduction policy for corporate dividends. In this paper, we employ the Modified Event Study Methodology to study the response of China’s capital market to the dividend differentiated tax reduction policy in 2015. The empirical results show that in the event window period, the cumulative raw return of the whole market is significantly positive, indicating that the differentiated tax reduction policy is regarded as good news by investors. We further find that compared with companies with weak dividend ability, low dividend level, and high stock liquidity, companies with solid dividend ability, high dividend level and low stock liquidity have a better market response. The cumulative raw return is higher. By observing the market reaction to the policy release, this paper provides new empirical evidence for the effectiveness of China’s dividend tax policy.
