VIII. Explanations on Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk may occur as a result of funding long-term assets with short-term resources. Utmost care is taken to maintain the consistency between the maturities of assets and
liabilities; strategies are used to acquire funds over longer terms.
The Bank’s principal source of funding is deposits. While the average maturity of deposits is shorter than the average maturity of assets as a result of the market conditions, the
Bank’s wide network of branches and steady core deposit base are its most important safeguards of the supply of funds. The Bank also borrows medium and long-term funds from
institutions abroad.
In order to meet the liquidity requirements that may arise due to market fluctuations, the Bank analyses TL and FC cash flows projections to preserve liquid assets. The term structure
of TL and FC deposits, their costs and movements in the total amounts are monitored on a daily basis, also accounting for developments in former periods and expectations for the
future. Based on cash flow projections, prices are differentiated for different maturities and thereby measures are taken to meet liquidity requirements; moreover liquidity that may
be required for extraordinary circumstances is estimated and alternative liquidity sources are determined for possible utilization.
Furthermore, foreign currency and total liquidity adequacy ratios, which are subject to weekly legal reporting and calculated separately for 7 and 31 days following the reporting date,
and the liquidity adequacy ratios that are calculated based on the stress scenarios built internally by the Bank, are used effectively to manage the liquidity risk.
Evaluated within the framework of the Bank’s asset-liability management risk policy, the limits determined related to the liquidity risk management are monitored by the Risk
Committee and to avoid extraordinary situations where a quick action should be taken due to the unfavorable market conditions, emergency measures and funding plans related to
liquidity risk are put into effect.
As per the Communiqué on “Measurement and Assessment of the Adequacy of Banks’ Liquidity”, the liquidity ratios that are measured for terms of 7 and 31 days should not be less
than 80% and 100%, respectively. Foreign currency liquidity adequacy ratio mean the ratio of foreign currency assets to foreign currency liabilities and the total liquidity adequacy
ratio means the ratio of total assets to total liabilities. The average liquidity adequacy ratios for the year ended 2014 with their prior year comparatives are given below.
