| Summary: | Investor expectations are greatly shaped by a company's dividend policy, which also has an
impact on stock price volatility. This study attempts to investigate how corporate dividend
policies affect stock price volatility in Malaysia's food and beverage sector. This research aims

secondary data gathered from publically accessible sources, including financial statements and
stock market data, the study uses a quantitative research design. For the analysis, a sample of
30 food and beverage companies that are listed on the Bursa Malaysia stock exchange is chosen

sample contains both dividend-paying and non-dividend-paying enterprises. Regression

stock price volatility is most significantly impacted by dividend yield and payout. The findings
shall improve knowledge of the relevance of dividend policy choices and their possible impacts
