Series

Global Liquidity Model. Global Liquidity, its collateral base, central bank money, sovereign debt and the collateral multiplier.

Components

22 components: five central bank balance sheets, each named with its publisher, and 17 government debt markets, with quantities from the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) debt securities statistics.

Observation and publication

Weekly, as of Friday. Published every Friday after the US close.

The fields delivered per component are confirmed at contract stage, subject to each publisher’s terms.

The regime (expansion or contraction), the six-week change and per-week data-quality flags are not among the six headline fields. Whether a licence delivers them is confirmed at contract stage.

China’s yield is a monthly series, carried forward between releases. The other 11 move with their exchange rate alone.The euro area enters as one aggregate, not as member states, so member-state debt is not counted twice.

Figures are rounded, so the parts may not add exactly. The component sample carries the component schema with its data dictionary.
