This paper examines whether the corporate governance structures of firms with diversified suppliers differ from those of firms with more specialized or concentrated suppliers. This study consists of multiple cross sections that cover the period between 1997 and 2001 and incorporates data collected from 176 industrial companies from fourteen industrial segments that listed stocks in Bovespa, the São Paulo Stock Exchange. This study based its exploration on the premise that minimized inventory and minimized days’ sales in inventory ratios define the best-performing supply management.
