Liquidity is a finance and business word describing how easily something can be turned into cash quickly, without losing much value. Cash itself has the highest liquidity — it already is money. A house has low liquidity — it can take months to sell. Companies and banks talk about "liquidity" a lot, because a business needs enough cash, or things it can sell easily, on hand to pay its bills, even if it owns valuable things overall.
