commercial banks in Nigeria, while the specific objectives yvere to ascertain
the effect of dividend payout ratio (DPR) on return on capital employed (ROCE)
oflisted commercial banks in Nigeria, to determine the effect of dividend
payout ratio (DPR) on the return on asset (ROA) of listed commercial banks in
Nigeria and also to determine the effect ofdividendpayoutratio (DPR) on the
return on equity (ROE) oflisted commercial banks in Nigeria. The research used
regression to analyze the data. The results showed that the estimated
coefficients of the regression parameter have both positive and negative signs
and thus conform to our a-priori expectation. The research therefore recommends
that banks willing to maximize shareholders wealth and firms value should
endeavor to consistently increase their dividendpayout ratio as this sends a
signal that the firm isfinancially healthy. Secondly, retained earnings should
be set aside wheneverpossible as this couldpositively impact the performance
bank.
