The The third one is the irregular dividend policy (Husain and Sunardi, 2020). The third one is a stable dividend policy and the last one is no dividend policy. The dividend policies help an organization to come up with many dividends that are payable by the company to its shareholders and the frequency at which the dividends can be paid out to the shareholders. Importance of stable dividend policies A company that has a stable dividend policy is always in a position to pay out steady dividends to shareholders at every given period irrespective of unpredictability (Kadim et al., 2020).
