Liquidity - an introduction

The primary function of prudential liquidity is the provision of sufficient assets in realisable form so as to enable the Society to meet its financial commitments as they arise and the absorption of potential cash flow requirements created by maturity mis-matches.

In determining the Liquidity strategy, consideration is given to the objectives for the quantity, quality, availability and cost of liquidity.

Types of assets held

The Society maintains a prudential mix of the following assets:

  • Floating Rate Notes
  • Gilts
  • Fixed Rate Eurobonds
  • Time Deposits
  • Mortgage Backed Securities
  • Certificates of Deposit
The society policy on liquid investments is based on the credit quality of the institution
