The inconclusiveness of dividend theories and empirical studies on the relationship between firm’s profitability and dividend payout decisions is one of the most debatable topics inresearches. Hence, the objective of this study is to examine the relationship between dividend policy and Ethiopianprivate insurance company’s profitability and to contribute to the ongoing debate. To achieve the objective of this study, secondary data were collected from the Audited annual financial statements of 8 private insurance companies in Ethiopia, from year 2006-2015. The study used purposive sampling technique to collect the necessary data. Descriptive statistics and Pearson correlation matrix were used for data analysis.

The findings of this study indicated that there is positive and significant relationship between profitability and dividend pay-out policy decision of Ethiopian private insurance companies.
