banks

[colbolsky]

Just seen a sign saying "liquidity ans profitability - the bank's dilemma" can anyone enlighten me on this?!

Could be a spelling mistak, and should read liquidity AND profitability?

I don't know much about banking, stocks etc. but I looked up the word "liquidity" and it means: "The quality of being readily convertible into cash e.g. 'an investment with high liquidity'". This suggests that the bank has to balance out how much money it is making in stocks and stuff (profitability?) with how much money it has ready to give out to people (liquidity). Or something like that.
