Liquidity Stress Testing

Right-size liquidity
Sufficient liquidity is critical to weather market and economic stresses. Be sure your credit union’s liquidity position is sufficient through all economic conditions.

Liquidity Stress Testing for Credit Unions

Liquidity forecasting and stress testing are critical components of any sound risk management program. A lack of liquidity is a key component in financial institution failure… understanding how your liquidity position fluctuates with changing market and economic conditions is key to maintaining the strength of your credit union. 

Strong liquidity risk management programs require projecting cash flows through a variety of possible and plausible economic environments. The goal is to push your liquidity position to failure and to identify the conditions that trigger failure. 

Our industry leading liquidity forecasting and stress testing solution not only projects primary and secondary liquidity but incorporates a wide battery of stress scenarios that push and pull on the balance sheet from all sides. 

Catalyst can elevate your liquidity management program, providing the key planning and decisioning tools you need to project against even the most extreme conditions.
