Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to examine the signaling theory of dividend policy in companies that are listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange. Design/methodology/approach: Based on the literature review of signaling theory in dividend policy, the research hypothesis was stated: There is no relationship between future earnings and current dividend payments in the financial statements of Warsaw listed companies during the studied period 2010-2021. Accordingly, an empirical model was built which consisted of an explanatory variable (dividend in subsequent years) and explanatory variables (earnings in subsequent years). In addition, a research questionnaire was conducted for individual investors who have been investing in the Warsaw Stock Exchange for more than one year. Findings: The estimation results of the econometric model confirmed that there is no relationship between the dividend paid and the profit of a given company. On the other hand, the survey results indicated that dividend policy is an important element in the decision-making process of individual investors in the stock market. Originality/value: The research in the paper is complementary in nature - the signaling theory in dividend policy was examined in a multifaceted manner - econometric testing of the model and qualitative research in the form of a survey among 100 investors.

Purpose: This article presents the principles of payout of dividends and dividend advances in capital companies and their significance in investor relations, as well as the basic theoretical assumptions regarding the dividend policy in an enterprise. Moreover, it describes positive and negative aspects of various dividend payout strategies. Design/methodology/approach: The article is entirely based on literature and legal acts. It presents the theoretical approach to the topic. Findings: The theories of dividends involve fundamentally contradictory assumptions, which may be useful for business managers only when external factors are taken into account. Even if there is no direct relationship between the dividend policy and investors' preferences and, consequently, the company's share price, adopting a specific dividend payout strategy seems to be a necessity. Determining a strategy will also allow shareholders to decide whether to keep the company shares or to sell those shares to investors interested in the strategy of the company. Originality/value: The review of the theories of dividends may be used by other researchers or investors.
