China emerged as one of the first economies to recover from the pandemic. However, the global operating environment presented multi-faceted challenges in 2021 including lockdown impacts, reduced domestic demand growth, subsiding policy support, and reduced investment and export demand given strong economic recovery. As a result, the Working Capital Index deteriorated in 2021. The Cash Index improved with a similar trajectory to S&P 1500 companies as investment activities picked up and companies looked to sustain growth momentum through more aggressive cash deployment.

In a global business environment, which continues to evolve under new uncertainties and opportunities, China’s corporates need to stay on the alert to address a multitude of issues
For 2021, China continued its journey of economic recovery from the pandemic from 2H2020, yet the momentum was disrupted. With multiple headwinds affecting the economy, businesses in China were faced with more challenging operational environment in 2021 and need to build resilience and readiness for the road ahead
The working capital index deteriorated by 4 points and returned to pre-pandemic levels for four reasons:
The Cash Index improved 8 points as companies more strategically deployed cash:
Investments were a particular area where cash deployment increased
The Cash Conversion Cycle declined by 2 and is significantly higher for Tier 2 sized companies
This graph displays the CCC of Tier 1 sized companies and the CCC of Tier 2 sized companies from years 2016 to 2021.
For CCC of Tier 1 sized companies: 64.1 in 2016, 67.8 in 2017, 64.1 in 2018, 61.2 in 2019, 57.7 in 2020, 62.5 in 2021.
