Abstract

The article deals with theoretical aspects of the bank’s liquidity estimation. The recommendations for improving the process of the bank’s liquidity assessment are given, in particular, the choice of indicators for assessing the liquidity level of the bank are substantiated; the scale of measuring indicators of bank’s liquidity is conducted. It is revealed that the majority of Ukrainian banks are characterized by the average level of liquidity. It is substantiated that improving the regulation of banks’ liquidity based on the standards of the Basel Committee will help to increase liquidity, which will make banks more reliable and financially sustainable for financial stresses in the world and national financial markets. It is established that the introduction of standards for Basel III, which strengthen the bank’s capital requirements and introduce new regulatory requirements for liquidity, should strengthen the stability of the banking system as a whole.
