Topic: Covid-19 and Bank Liquidity
Insights from Brian Velligan, Managing Partner, Velligan-Blaxall Consultants,
What will be the impact of the pandemic on bank liquidity? Given the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act), what has been the effect so far on bank deposit levels? Do we expect to see a flight to safety and deposit inflows as in past downturns? Should we be treating these deposits as “hot money”? On the asset side of the balance sheet, is it a matter of time before we see credit deterioration and a rise in delinquencies and non-performing loans? And what will happen to asset durations especially in light of refinance requests? Brian Velligan, Managing Partner of Velligan-Blaxall Consultants, is our guest this month to share his insights on the effect of the pandemic on bank liquidity.
