BAKU, Azerbaijan, April 15. The liquidity of
the banking sector of Azerbaijan continues to remain in the comfort
zone, Trend
reports via CBA.
The sector’s liquidity position has aligned with the framework
of the new monetary policy and prudential instruments.
“All banks have exceeded the required liquidity coverage ratio
(LCR) set for both total and foreign currency liquidity. The
sector’s instant liquidity ratio stands at 52 percent, exceeding
the minimum regulatory threshold by 22 percentage points,” the bank
noted.
The CBA emphasized that 27 percent of the sector’s assets
consist of liquid funds, including an increase in required
reserves. This, it stated, ensures that the sector maintains an
adequate buffer against potential liquidity shocks.
