LIQUIDITY CRISIS
A period of short-term or technical insolvency, which is depicted by lack of cash flow. In a business, individuals or organizations do not have enough liquid assets to meet short-term obligations like paying due bills and its employees, and repaying loans. If not resolved, the company must declare insolvency. In the case of an insolvent business who undergoes a liquidity crisis, restoring its cash flow cannot obviate its ultimate bankruptcy.
