Working capital management is a cornerstone of financial strategy, directly influencing a firm’s liquidity, operational efficiency, and profitability. This study examines the dynamics of working capital management with a specific focus on risk management and strategic recommendations for sustainable financial health. As businesses navigate volatile market conditions, rising interest rates, and supply chain disruptions, the ability to manage current assets and current liabilities efficiently has become a critical determinant of corporate resilience. This paper reviews theoretical frameworks, conducts data analysis using primary survey data from finance professionals and managers, tests hypotheses relating to the impact of working capital efficiency on profitability, and concludes with actionable strategic recommendations. The findings affirm that firms with disciplined working capital management practices demonstrate superior risk mitigation capabilities and stronger bottom-line performance.
