[this page | pdf | references | back links]

There are two main types of liquidity risk:

Funding liquidity risk

This is the risk that money markets will not be able or willing to supply funding to the entity in question

Asset liquidity risk

This is the risk that there will be insufficient capacity in markets to handle asset transactions when the entity wants to transact without a material impact on price.
