Many leading asset pricing models predict that the term structures of expected returns and volatilities on dividend … these models replace their exogenously specified dividend dynamics with processes that are derived endogenously from capital …) when leverage is low (high), which shifts risk from long-horizon to short-horizon dividend strips. This framework also …

We use traded equity dividend strips from U.S., Europe, and Japan from 2004-2017 to study the slope of the term … structure of equity dividend risk premia. In the data, a robust finding is that the term structure of dividend risk premia … and expansion regimes. The unconditional population term structure of dividend-risk premia in the regime-switching model …

to obtain a term structure of expected dividend growth rates and a term structure of risk premia, which allows us to … decompose the equity risk premium by maturity. We find that both expected dividend growth rates and risk premia exhibit … substantial variation over time, particularly for short maturities. In addition to predicting dividend growth, equity yields help …

We develop a dynamic general equilibrium model to study the impact of the 2003 dividend and capital gains tax cuts. In … adjustment costs, equity issuance costs, and collateral constraints. We show that when the dividend and capital gains tax cuts … are unexpected and permanent, dividend payments, equity issuance, and aggregate investment rise immediately. By contrast …

The model is consistent with several features of the data, including equilibrium dividend … policies similar to a Lintner partial-adjustment model; modal dividend changes of zero; stronger market reactions to dividend …

To study the long-run effect of dividend taxation on aggregate capital accumulation, we build a dynamic general … equilibrium model in which there is a continuum of firms subject to idiosyncratic productivity shocks.
