The samples in this study were 29 conventional banks that were listed in the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). The result showed that the independent variable profitability (ROA) had a significant and positive effect on the dividend payout ratio while the free cash flow variable and the investment opportunity set did not affect the dividend payout ratio.
