This book is a research monograph that explores the role of trade credit in the functioning of economic entities. It provides a comprehensive source of knowledge about the role of trade credit in the development of enterprises and the impact of this form of finance on the development of economies. The study reviews the theoretical aspects of the role of trade credit in the economy and discusses the importance of factors influencing trade credit behaviour. Trade credit, despite its versatility, has not yet been fully described, particularly with regard to the specificity of domestic markets. This study aggregates and supplements the existing sources and is of an international character, covering a substantial group of European countries. The findings may be of interest to those involved in finance management, as understanding the differences in receivables management resulting from the country specificity can contribute to a better understanding of business finance and its operational functions. Chapters 1 and 5 of this book are freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives 4.0 license available at http://www.taylorfrancis.com.
