On attache parfois au terme liquidités au sens plus étroit, soit le montant des espèces et autres moyens de paiement dont une entité peut disposer immédiatement pour effecteur des règlements, c'est-à-dire les «cash assets» par opposition aux «liquid assets». Les liquidités ne comprennent pas alors les actifs qui peuvent être facilement transformés en argent à court terme, par exemple les titres négociables. 1, record 1, French, - liquidit%C3%A9s
