There have been various debates on how the performance of economies can be analysed and monitored over time. Such attempts aim to drive a conclusion as to what works for economic growth and development. What may work in one region for a given economy might not apply in another. One of the most important factors to consider are external variables which tend to have a huge impact on the way in which an economy reacts to a given shock. Economic shocks can take different forms such as the 2007-2010 financial crisis or the 2019-2022 Covid-19 health pandemic which had huge trickle-down effect on the economies. This article focuses on the liquidity hazard model for class I and II banks before and after the financial crisis. The study used a pooled OLS regression model using panel analysis. The results showed that regression is statistically significant for BDR, LCR and NSFR with F-statistic given as 7.787 and P < 0.05. About 21% of the variation in Interest income was explained by the model. The NSFR has a positive impact on II while BDR, LCR, LIBOR OIS and ROA had a negative impact. The liquidity hazard model, particularly the Diamond–Dybvig framework, continues to provide valuable insights into the vulnerabilities of banks. While regulatory measures like Basel III have strengthened liquidity requirements, the evolving nature of banking, influenced by technological advancements and changing depositor behaviours, necessitates continuous adaptation of models and regulations to safeguard financial stability.
