The internal factors such as the firm size, leverage and profitability of the company while for the external factors such as Gross Domestic Product (GDP), interest rate and inflation rate. This study holds a purpose to identify the determinants that influence the dividend declared by the selected GLICs in Malaysia which are TH, EPF, and LTAT. From the previous study that related, the researchers found there are positive relationship between the profitability and dividend and also between firm size and dividend but negative relationship between leverage and dividend. For the macroeconomic variables which is the external factors, past researchers expect it to be positive relationship with the dividend.
