Effect of financial leverage and dividend payment on Corporate Value: Case in Vietnamese real estate sector

The study examines the effect of financial leverage and dividend payments on firm value using a sample of 29 listed real estate firms from the Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange (HOSE) and the Hanoi Stock Exchange (HNX). By employing the Ordinary Least Square (OLS), Two-stage Least Square (2SLS), and Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) estimation methods, we obtain robust evidence of the positive effect of leverage and dividend distribution on real estate sector corporate value.
