Abstract

Effective working capital management is vital for the sustenance of any company. It plays a
crucial role in creating value for firms, while poor working capital management not only
erodes value but can also push a company towards insolvency. Hence, both managers and
scholars are actively engaged in the quest to identify the factors that impact working capital
management. This study empirically explores the factors influencing the need for effective
working capital management within the specific context of a developing country.
Understanding the drivers of working capital management is particularly crucial in
developing countries, where firms often grapple with limited access to financial resources.
Identifying these determinants equips managers with the insights needed to make wellinformed
decisions in the daily operations of their organizations. This enables them to strike a
balance between ensuring they have enough cash on hand for operational needs and avoiding
the excessive holding of cash, which could hinder investments for future growth of the firm.
