EFFECTIVE LIQUIDITY MANAGEMENT AS A PILLAR OF FINANCIAL STABILITY

Abstract

Effective liquidity management is a fundamental prerequisite for ensuring financial stability at the microeconomic, institutional, and systemic levels. The global financial crisis exposed the vulnerability of financial institutions to liquidity shocks and demonstrated that even well-capitalized entities can face severe distress in the absence of robust liquidity risk management frameworks. This article provides a scientific analysis of the core principles, regulatory standards, and modern tools of liquidity management. It examines the role of adequate reserves, regulatory reforms such as Basel III, stress testing, and digital transformation in strengthening liquidity resilience. The study highlights how effective liquidity management contributes to financial stability and reduces systemic risk in an increasingly interconnected global financial system.
