The results of this study indicate that Return on Assets, Current Ratio, Investment Opportunity Set, and Free Cash Flow have a positive and significant effect on partial dividend policies. At the same time, the debt-to-equity ratio does not partially affect the dividend policy. Firm size can moderate the impact of the current ratio and investment opportunity set on partial dividend policy. However, the company's size cannot moderate the effect of return on assets, debt-to-equity ratio, and free cash flow on partial dividend policies.
