STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

This project deals with the study about Working Capital Management in
THE CHITTOOR DISTRICT CO-OPERATIVE CENTRAL BANK LTD.,
IMPORTANCE OF THE STUDY
There are numerous aspects of working capital management that makes it an
important topic for the study.
The management of assets in any organization is an essential part of overall
management. The enterprise, at the time of formation attaches great importance to
fixed assets management, as a part of investment decision-making. However, in the
overall day-to-day financial management, after the initial investment, the management
gives more importance to managing working capital. If we look at any financial
statement it will be evident that the investment in fixed assets remains more or less
static but the working capital is constantly changing. A healthy working capital
position is the sine-qua-non of a successful business. This is reflected in adequate
inventories, lowest level of debtors, minimum utilization of bank facilities for
working capital, etc. thus the study of working capital management occupies an
important place in financial management.
