Usamos una base detallada de 523 de empresas colombianas principalmente no listadas (1996-2006). Encontramos que la propiedad familiar tiene un efecto negativo y significativo en la probabilidad de pago de dividendos. Más aún, el control familiar a través de estructuras piramidales significativamente reduce el nivel de pagos. Adicionalmente, el involucramiento familiar en la junta incrementa significativamente la probabilidad de pago de dividendos, inclusive cuando el CEO es miembro de la familia fundadora. La presencia del fundador tiene un efecto negativo, aunque sólo débilmente significativo, en el pago de dividendos de las empresas.Introduction. Dividends and Agency Problems.
