In an era where strategic financial maneuvering can make or break a company, a new report provides a breakdown of how growth corporates leverage working capital solutions to not just survive, but thrive.
The “2024-2025 Growth Corporates Working Capital Index: Industry Factbook,” commissioned by Visa and conducted by PYMNTS Intelligence, surveyed 1,297 CFOs and treasurers across eight key industries and 23 countries to understand how they are using working capital to drive growth. This index takes a deep dive into industries supporting nearly 70% of the global gross domestic product. These include agriculture, commercial travel, fleet and mobility, healthcare, manufacturing and construction, media and technology, professional and facility management services, retail, and marketplaces.
This report examines the business characteristics of firms that drive local, regional and global economies and the solutions available to support steady growth. We analyze the strategic versus tactical use of these solutions, the top solutions employed and the “wish list” items these corporates seek from FIs. The report assigns scores to firms based on their propensity for reduced days payable outstanding (DPO), offering a performance benchmark.
The “2024-2025 Growth Corporates Working Capital Index” offers valuable insights for financial professionals looking to stay ahead of the curve.
