Abstract:
The study examines the impact of bank competition
of financial risk management. The simple regression technique is employed to test the hypotheses.
The time series data is gathered from the financial statements of the conventional banks in Pakistan
from 2004-2022. The Thomson Reuters financial data stream is used for data collection. The
findings suggest that bank competition has a positive significant impact on liquidity creation in
Pakistan. It means that the higher competition among conventional banks results in the liquidity
creation. The more the banks compete, the more the banks create liquidity and boost
growth. The findings of the study align with the competition stability theory. The State Bank of
Pakistan must effectively use the monetary policy rate to control the amount of liquidity creation
in the economy. The extremes of liquidity creation, either the highest or lowest, harm the bank's
performance and raise the risks for the banks.
