Furthermore, the paper examines the impact of industry-specific factors such as demand volatility, supply chain dynamics, technological advancements, and regulatory environments on working capital management practices. By comparing and contrasting the findings across different industries, this study provides valuable insights into the factors influencing working capital management decisions and identifies best practices that can be adapted by companies to optimize their working capital efficiency and enhance overall financial performance. The research contributes to the existing literature by offering a comprehensive analysis of working capital management practices across diverse industries, highlighting industry-specific challenges and opportunities.
