The recent global financial crisis demonstrates that market liquidity is a prominent systematic risk globally. We find that local liquidity risk, in addition to the local market, value and size factors, demands a systematic premium across stocks in 11 developed markets. This local pricing premium is smaller in countries where the country-level corporate boards are more effective and where Abstract.

Liquidity is how easily an asset or security can be bought or sold in the market, and converted to cash. There are two different types of liquidity risk: Funding liquidity and market liquidity risk. Flight-to-Liquidity and Global Equity Returns ABSTRACT Investment practice and academic literature document a great degree of interaction between stock markets around the world and most liquid and safest assets such as the US Treasury bonds. Using data from 46 markets, we examine the joint impact of the “flight-to-liquidity” and “flight-to- Asset liquidity improves stock liquidity more for firms that are less likely to reinvest their liquid assets (i.e., firms with less growth opportunities and financially constrained firms). Empirically, we find a positive and economically large relation between asset liquidity and stock liquidity. Consistent with our model, the relation is more
The authors explain that the source of the higher returns comes not only from compensation for taking liquidity risk, but also from stocks "migrating" between liquid and less liquid (just as atic risk factor and if yes, how it affects equity returns around the world. It is crucial for global investors to understand how market-wide liquidity risk is priced for stocks at the local level (i.e., local liquidity risk) and for locally diversified market portfolios at the global level (i.e., global liquidity risk).7 Liquidity risk is the risk stemming from the lack of marketability of an investment that cannot be bought or sold quickly enough to prevent or minimize a loss.
