Its hot topic and good research for PHD researcher but you should add more variables relating dividends and classify board of directors as examples and human capital

As this is kind of a personal preference, you should look for something that is primarily interesting to you. I particularly would suggest researches on the Corporate Sustainability as a branch of the Corporate Governance field. Sustainability is a important, complex and somewhat contemporary subject, with practices and laws that varies from country to country, which opens space for new and updated researches.

Corporate Governance, irrespective of how much work has been done, still is an area of research that has good potential. Do it in the context of your own country, and preferably with specific instances. Best Wishes.

I agree with Rosemberg regarding sustainibility. That's a hot topic in today's world and it will grow over time. An unexplored world to dig into.

Antoher topic you can look at it is about RPA, AI and blockchain and which role Corporate Governance is willing to play in it. In ICT companies this is a topic already in the agenda however it would be good to identify the gaps in other sectors. Good luck!

Effect of economic policy on practice of corporate governance in a developing economy

PhD research topics should normally be anchored on one's passion in a particular area of research interest. This is my humble opinion. Nevertheless, you may wish to consider topical issues that commands global policy makers' attention, especially those areas that might attract both national and international sponsorship/scholarship.

"The Nominal Share Price Puzzle" is now questionable since a lot of U.S. stock prices are higher than 1000.

Article The Puzzle of 16 Days between the Ex-dividend and Payment Dates

Share repurchases not only as a dividend policy but also as a corporate governance tool...

1.Buyback of shares is one option to companies to moderate their Dividend Policy according to the financial conditions of the company. This can be adopted as per future needs of the companies.

2. Stock split is another option for companies to design their Dividend Policy.

I propose studies on the correlation of dividend policy changes and improvement of corporate governance standards with the change of image, customer awareness in terms of brand recognition, mission, company offer and financial results.
