The purpose of the study is to investigate the influence of corporate governance practices on working capital management efficiency in the listed companies of the manufacturing sector in Sri Lanka. Board meeting, board size, CEO tenure and size of the audit committee are used as corporate governance practices and the cash conversion cycle is calculated to measure the working capital management efficiency. Sales growth and firm size are considered as control variables to evaluate the influence of corporate governance practices on working capital management efficiency. Relevant data are extracted from the annual reports of 30 listed manufacturing companies for the period from 2013 to 2017. Finally, 150 observations are used for the data analysis. Pearson correlations are executed to determine the relationship between corporate governance practices and working capital management efficiency. OLS regression analysis is performed to determine the explanatory power of the combination of corporate governance practices on the efficiency of working capital management. The correlation analysis shows that board meeting, CEO tenure and firm size have a significant positive relationship with cash conversion cycle. The regression results suggest that board meetings and CEO tenure have a significant positive influence on cash conversion cycle. Generally, the shorter the cash conversion cycle is better for the business, therefore, according to this result the increase in a board meeting and CEO tenure have the considerable decreasing in liquidity position in an organization. Therefore, the outcome of the study may be useful to the top management of the firms and practitioners when they are implementing governance mechanisms in order to enhance the working capital efficiency.

The paper presents the findings of the analysis of the impact of corporate governance mechanisms on working capital management efficiency in the listed companies of the Consumer service sector in Botswana. Eight corporate governance elements and seven working capital components were extracted from the annual reports of a sample of six companies for the period 2012 to 2017 for the analysis. Thirty six observations were obtained. Pearson correlations were executed to determine the relationship between corporate governance elements and working capital components. OLS regression analysis was performed to establish the explaining power of the combination of corporate governance elements on each of the working capital components. The correlation analysis shows that number of non-executive directors has a significant negative but moderate relationship with cash conversion cycle and number of board subcommittees has significant positive but moderate relationship with Debt ratio. The regression results suggest that corporate governance mechanisms have a significant impact on working capital management, the highest impact being reflected on inventory conversion period. The implications of these findings are that boards of directors have a significant role to play in working capital management efficiency of the companies they govern. They should therefore continue providing attainable policies on working capital management and remain vigilant on demanding feedback on their implementations.

The aims of this study is to analyze the relationship between working capital management and profitability (return on assets) as a dependent variable and cash conversion cycle (CCC), inventory conversion period (ICP), average collection period (ACP) and average payment period (APP) as independent variables with leverage, liquidity, and size as the controlling variables. The sample of this study are manufacturing companies in the Indonesian Stock Exchange 2013-2017. The analysis using OLS showed that the ACP has a negative and significant effect on ROA and the APP has a positive and significant effect on ROA, meanwhile CCC and ICP has a negative and insignificant effect on ROA.

The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of merger on the efficiency of working capital management of American production firms. This study applied a co-relational research design. A sample of 497 listed American production firms for a period of 4 years (from 2010-2014) was analyzed. The findings of this study indicate that mergers may contribute to an improvement of the efficiency of working capital management. This is a co-relational study that investigated the association between merger and working capital management efficiency. There is not necessarily a causal relationship between the two, although the paper provides some conjectures to such relationship. The findings of this study may only be generalized to firms similar to those that were included in this research. This study contributes to the literature on the factors that improve the efficiency of working capital management, and in particular on the association between merger and the efficiency of working capital management. The findings may be useful for financial managers, investors, financial management consultants, and other stakeholders.

Whether empirical or conceptual, the discussion have delineated working capital management as that part of business strategy which involves effective management of short term or current assets and liabilities to ensure optimal level and maximization of value. This paper aims to provide an analysis on the concept and propose framework that emphasizes on investigating the impact of management of working capital on the profitability of manufacturing companies listed on the Nigerian stock exchange. The paper proposes four dimensions (variables) as cash management levels, inventory management levels, receivable management, and the trade credit (Accounts payable) as measures of working capital management and the profitability of companies.
