An analysis of 1124 research papers depicted that research in this domain has significantly increased over the last fifteen years. Data wereanalyzed based on journals, authors, year of publications, countries, and research streams. Extracted results further indicated that the United States has taken a lead in publications in this field, followed by China and India. This study has helped in revealing the latest trends in Working Capital Management research (WCM).
