Moody's: Asian Liquidity Stress Index weakens to 25.6% in June from 25.2% in May

Moody's Investors Service says that its Asian Liquidity Stress Index (Asian LSI) weakened in June, rising to 25.6% from 25.2% in May 2017. 

Weak liquidity still a concern

"The June figure ends six months of continuous improvement, and the reading now remains just above the long-term average of 22.9%, highlighting that weak liquidity is still a concern for many companies in Asia," says Brian Grieser, a Moody's Vice President and Senior Credit Officer.
