Abstract

The aim of this paper is to analyze the working capital performance of the public listed firms on BM&FBOVESPA which was classified as steel sector during 2010 to 2014 period. A total of five firms were analyzed, and their mean was computed as a sector performance. Through a comparison of traditional and dynamic models of the working capital and using a multicase study combined with a descriptive methodology, the finding results suggest, on average, that the firms presented a solid working capital structure and, to some firms, the years of 2012, 2013 and 2014 presented significant reductions on their performance.
