Identifying liquidity is the foundation from which the entire liquidity management process depends. !t involves understanding the balances and positions of the institution on 21
www.AssignmentPoint.com
an enterprise(wide level. *his requires the ability to access and gather information across the institution7s many lines of business, currencies, accounts and often multiple systems. !dentifying liquidity is primarily a function of data gathering, and does not include the actual movement or usage of funds.
Managing liquidity within a bank7s corporate treasury involves using the identified liquidity to support the bank7s revenue generating activities. *his may include consolidating funds, managing the release of funds to ma3imie their use, and tasks that Ifree upI lower(costing funds for lending or investment purposes to ma3imie their value to the institution.
!#timi4ing liquidity is an ongoing process with a focus on ma3imiing the value of the institution7s funds. As the strategic aspect of liquidity management, optimiing liquidity balances requires a strong and detailed understanding of the financial institution7s liquidity positions across all currencies, accounts, business lines and counterparties. 2ith this information, the bank7s treasury is able to map the strategic aspects of the institution into the liquidity management process.
Limited time and $esou$%es a*ailability is the biggest challenge in the liquidity management process to treasury. Although treasury groups are staffed with very capable personnel, a large amount of their time is spent on the task(based function of identifying liquidity instead of on the strategic elements necessary to optimie balances. *his results in the entire liquidity management process being less efficient and affects the institution7s bottom line.

A key issue that !""L needs to focus on is the maturity of its assets and liabilities in different tenors. A typical strategy of a bank to generate revenue is to run mismatch, i.e. borrowEtakes deposit short term and lendEinvestment longer term. -owever, mismatch is accompanied by liquidity risk and e3cessive longer tenor !nvestment against shorter(term deposits would put a bank’s balance sheet in a very critical and risky position. *o address this risk and to make sure a bank does not e3pose itself in e3cessive mismatch, a bucket( wise 8e.g. ne3t day, %(@ days, @ days(= month, =(< months, <(B months, B months(= year, =(% year, %(< years, <(? years, ?(' years, over ' year9 maturity profile of the assets and liabilities is prepared to understand mismatch in every bucket. 2e know that all of the shorter tenor assets and liabilities will not come in or go out of the bank’s balance sheet. As a result, banks prepare a forecasted balance sheet where the assets and liabilities of the nature of current, overdraft etc. are divided into Jcore and non(core’ balances, where core is defined as the portion that is e3pected to be stable and will stay with the bankH and non( core to be less stable. *he distribution of core and non(core is determined through historical trend, customer behavior, statistical forecasts and managerial +udgmentH the core balance can be put into over = year bucket whereas non( core can be in %(@ days or < months bucket.
