“…According to the research that has been conducted so far, effective management of liquidity may have a positive effect on the financial performance of conventional banks. According to the results of a research that was carried out by Abdi et al (2022), the successful management of liquidity risk has a positive influence on the profitability of banks that are functioning in Pakistan. The research used a sample of 23 conventional banks located in Pakistan, and it came to the conclusion that those banks who executed more efficient approaches for managing liquidity displayed better levels of profitability in comparison to banks which implemented fewer effective strategies for managing liquidity.…”
This research paper examines the impact of liquidity and credit risk management on the performance of Pakistan's financial institutions. The study employs quantitative research methodology to collect secondary data from the annual reports of fifteen commercial institutions for the years 2012-2021. The researchers analyzed the data through panel regression analysis. According to the findings of the study, liquidity and credit risk management have a significant and positive effect on the financial performance of Pakistani institutions. This study is innovative because it focuses on the Pakistani financial industry, which has not been extensively examined in the literature. This study also contributes to the existing literature on the impact of liquidity and credit risk management on banks' financial performance. This study focuses on only 15 institutions in Pakistan, limiting the generalizability of the results. Future research can increase the sample size to include more banks and also consider other variables that may influence the financial performance of Pakistani banks. The study's findings can provide policymakers, regulators, and financial institutions with valuable insights to enhance their liquidity and credit risk management practices.
