ItemThe relationship between working capital management and business performance in publicly listed Thai automotive companiesThailand’s automotive industry has a tendency to grow because it is a group of industries that the Thai government has continuously promoted and the main industry for the country’s export products. Therefore, companies in the automotive industry should have good working capital management. This is because it is an industry that purchases raw materials to produce products, stores finished goods for sale, and sell to both domestic and international markets. This process involves buying on credit, storing of goods, selling on credit and investing the money. These processes will affect the business performance if the company spends too much or too little time to collect receivables, stock up inventories and pay their creditors.
