Tools and techniques to manage liquidity
Liquidity risk in banking has been attributed to transactions deposits
and their potential to spark runs or panics. Transactions deposits help banks hedge liquidity risk from unused loan
commitments.
Bank stock-return volatility increases with unused
commitments, but the increase is smaller for banks
with high levels of
transactions deposits.
This deposit-lending risk management synergy
becomes more powerful during periods of tight liquidity,
when nervous
investors move funds into their banks.
Managing cash flow, interest
rates and relations with the bank are fundamentally issues for every
business.
