Assessing the Impact of Liquidity on Profitability: Specific to the Banking Industry of Bangladesh
The present study investigates whether liquidity positively or negatively stimulates the profitability of commercial banks of Bangladesh. Methodology: The analysis has been performed on 5 randomly selected banks over a period of 10 years (2011-2020). The respective banks' annual reports were the sources of secondary data based on which the study has been performed. For study purpose, dominant profitability ratios are studied along with the calculation of liquidity. ROA served profitability measures being considered as dependent variables whereas Loan-Deposit, Deposit-Assets, & Cash-Deposit ratios served liquidity measures being considered as independent variables. Ordinary Least Square Models have been made use of testing how liquidity affects the banking sector's profitability. Findings: From the analysis, it is founded that a rise in the banks' aforementioned liquidity ratio would escalate the Return on Assets i.e. profitability. Practical Implications: The study has evident that commercial banks of Bangladesh might have a better balance between the profitability and liquidity. Originality: The impact of liquidity on profitability has been stated in this paper which considered data from randomly selected 5 banks. The outcomes of the paper will demonstrate valuable addition to the existing research work in the related field. Research Limitations: Only 5 randomly selected commercial banks among 61 scheduled banks of Bangladesh were the study samples for which the overall financial scenario is difficult to know. It is also quite impossible to comment on the liquidity and profitability position as well as their relationship by considering only 5 banks.

Liquidity-Profitability Relationship in Bangladesh Banking Industry
This study explored the relationship between liquidity (measured as current ratio) and profitability (measured as return on assets) in the banking industry in Bangladesh. We have considered twelve banks in four different sectors (Government banks, Islami banks, multinational banks and private commercial banks). We tried to figure out how much liquidity of a bank can explain its profitability. We ran linear regression to find out the extent of relationship between bank's liquidity and profitability (significance level was 10%). Individually all the sectors show no significant relationship between liquidity and profitability. Even the overall banking industry shows the same result. We considers year just before recession (2006) to post-recession (2011). We showed graphically how liquidity and profitability of these sectors varied over last couple of years. Government banks showed variable liquidity, while other sectors were steady. But, there were much fluctuations in profitability in between these times in all the sectors. Finally, we concluded that based on our sample and category, there is no significant relationship between liquidity and profitability in banks of different sectors in Bangladesh.
The Relationship between Liquidity and Profitability of Listed Banks of Bangladesh
The main purpose of this study is to examine the impact of liquidity on firm’s profitability. All the listed banks of DSE are selected for this purpose. Here we have find out the effect of independent variable (Temporary Investment Ratio) and control variable (Firm Size) over the dependent variables (ROA). For this study we have used panel data which includes 30 banks’ 5 year analysis. Trends of the ratios and element were examined. A model have been used to make the regression analysis. Here, secondary data have been used which were collected from the annual reports and calculated for 5 year period (2012-2016). We have found that there is a significant positive association between the performance of firms’ profitability and the liquidity of the sampled firms in Bangladesh. That means liquidity is relevant to profitability.
Problems Associated with Liquidity Management of Commercial Banks of Bangladesh
Research Journal of Finance and Accounting, 2019
Liquidity Management is the key to the success or failure of commercial banks irrespective of nature, sizes, and kinds. Although, liquidity is not directly link the generation of profits, but it enables commercial banks to use the funds for generating profits by maintaining economic size of liquidity. Liquidity management, being an integral part of commercial banks, faces numerous problems of different categories. So, a commercial bank has to identify the problems associated with liquidity planning and controlling in order to ensure more effective liquidity management. In view of this, the current study has been undertaken to identify some important problems associated with liquidity management of samples of fifty executive level managers of some private commercial banks in Bangladesh formed by employing sophisticated Varimax Rotated factor Analysis. The study has found that Regulatory and Policy Related Problems, Debt Instrument Problems and Foreign Exchange Market Related Problems are the main warnings that hinder the liquidity position of commercial banks.

This paper aims at investigating the relationship between profitability and liquidity of the State-Owned Commercial Banks of Bangladesh. An important motive of this study is to provide valuable insights into how liquidity influences profitability. There are various research papers on liquidity exposure and the profitability relationship of banks in Bangladesh. But those researches are separately conducted for conventional or Islamic banks or there is a comparative analysis of both banks. But there is little research on the state-owned banking industry. During the Pandemic the banking industry of Bangladesh was affected severely in respect of liquidity risk and it also affected its profitability. There is no recent paper focused on this study. So, this study will try to identify the significant factors that affect the liquidity of a bank and its profitability. In this regard, 10 years' data from Annual Report of the State-Owned Commercial Banks and macroeconomic data from Bangladesh Bank website and several journals have been collected from 2012 to 2021. This study primarily aims at exploring the liquidity-profitability relationship using econometric model. Loan to Deposit ratio is used measuring liquidity of a bank. Other control variables Loan Loss Provision to Total Asset (LLPTA) for credit risk, Equity to Total Asset (EQTA) for capital efficiency, Operational expense to Total Asset (OPEXTA) for operational efficiency, Total Asset (TA) for Bank size, Non-performing Loan (NPL) for asset quality, Gross Domestic Product (GDP) for economy size, Inflation (INF) for consumer price index, Interest Rate (INT) for opportunity cost, and the Unemployment rate for measuring labor force. The major finding of this study show that there is a significant positive relationship between liquidity risk and profitability. Among bank-specific variables credit risk, capital efficiency, and bank size have a significant relationship with Profitability which also supports the theory. Macroeconomic variables like interest rate, inflation rate, and GDP have a significant relationship with profitability which also supports the theory. Here BDBL and BASIC should have maintained the liquidity standard mentioned by Bangladesh Bank and BIS to mitigate their liquidity crisis. This study also shows that there is no severe effect of the COVID pandemic on the State-Owned Commercial Banks of Bangladesh. The findings of this study will provide valuable insights for banks and regulators to make informed decisions regarding risk management, liquidity decision, capital allocation, and strategic planning.
Impact of Liquidity on Islamic Banks' Profitability: Evidence from Bangladesh
This study examines the impact of liquidity on Islamic banks" profitability during an 11 years period of 2001 to 2011. To explore and interpret the results the study has taken samples from five Islamic banks that have been in operation in Bangladesh on or before 2001 to till date. In order to construct the liquidity model it used four liquidity variables namely cash & due from banks to total assets (CDTA), cash & due from banks to total deposits (CDDEP), investment to total assets (INVSTA) and investment to total deposits (INVSDEP). According to adjusted R squares profitability variables return on assets (ROA), return on equity (ROE) and return on deposits (ROD) are respectively 17.1%, 4.5% and 24.6% dependent on independent variables. The statistical results suggest that CDTA is found insignificant with all profitability variables, whereas CDDEP is individually significant with all profitability variables except ROE. On the other hand INVSTA and INVSDEP are recognized signific...
