Abstract:
The article presents a comparative assessment of the factors affecting the likelihood of paying dividends by Islamic and traditional banks in the countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC). The results show marked differences in the magnitude and importance of life cycle characteristics in explaining the likelihood of paying dividends for Islamic and traditional banks. The results also show that higher default rates and business risk associated with Gulf banks reduce their propensity to pay dividends.
