    Solution

    The Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) under Basel III mandates that banks should hold sufficient high-quality liquid assets (HQLA) to survive an acute liquidity stress scenario lasting for 30 days . This ensures that banks can meet their liquidity needs in times of crisis without resorting to emergency measures.
