Statistical analysis was used in an empirical study based on financial data of 13,513 firms operating in seven countries from Central and Eastern Europe in the research period 2012-2020. The study confirmed company-specific liquidity determinants (company size, growth, tangibility, leverage and cash flow). The average industry liquidity was found to be an industry-specific factor (positive relationship). The positive impact of unemployment and access to credit was detected at country level. The study also showed that country-specific determinants had twice as broad an influence on liquidity as industry-specific factors. It also provided evidence that companies tend to achieve the target liquidity level. The speed of adjustment was 88%.}, title={Determinants and speed of adjustment of financial liquidity: Evidence from Central and Eastern Europe}, type={artykuł}, keywords={working capital management, liquidity determinants, target level of liquidity, speed of liquidity adjustment, Central and Eastern Europe}, }
