Liquidity risk may be the farthest thing from a credit union executive's mind. However, liquidity risk is a dynamic concept which can change very quickly. We will demonstrate the scenarios where a credit union could go from being very liquid to liquidity-sensitive in a very short period of time. We will also demonstrate the most common approaches to identifying and estimating liquidity risk.
