Abstract
⺠We empirically test if covenant violations lead to dividend reductions. ⺠We find that violations significantly increase the likelihood of dividend reductions. ⺠Relationship is more significant for financially constrained firms. ⺠Relationship is more significant for firms with strong shareholder rights. ⺠Relationship is only significant before the repeal of Glass-Steagall and not after.
