Résumé
This paper examines the determinats of Cash Conversion Cycle (CCC) for small and medium-sized firms. It is found that these firms have a target CCC level to which they attempt to converge, and they try to adjust to their target level quickly. The results also show that this level is higher for older firms and companies with greater cash flows. In contrast with this, firms with more growth opportunities, and firms with higher leverage, investment in fixed assets and return on assets have lower CCC levels.
