摘要：

This study examines the impact of female CEOs and CFOs on working capital management. We find that firms led by female executives manage the working capital cycle more efficiently and aggressively, resulting in a shorter cash conversion cycle and lower working capital requirements. Female CEOs are associated with improvements in operational efficiency, while female CFOs influence the financing aspects of working capital, contributing to higher cash holdings.
