Liquidity Instructions No. 8 of 2013

The Palestine Monetary Authority issued Instructions No. 8 of 2013 to cancel the second phase of a scheduled increase in US dollar-denominated cash liquidity ratios, effectively freezing them at 4.5% for banks and 3% for branches as of November 1, 2013. This directive amends the previously mandated tiered increases under Instructions No. (2013/4) by halting the projected 6% bank-level and 4% branch-level thresholds. Consequently, all Palestinian banks must maintain their existing liquidity compliance levels without further adjustment until a subsequent regulatory update.
