A residual dividend policy is basically one type of dividend policy, which states that a company will prioritize capital expenditures before paying out dividends to shareholders. Anytime a company follows the model of a residual dividend policy, it doesn’t have an excess cash at any given time. All cash is distributed to pay for the operational needs of the business (reinvestment).
