Summary/Abstract: Liquidity management and its impact on the profitability of commercial banks are two issues of particular importance in the further development of the business and at the same time two sources of concern for financial managers. For this reason, this study aims to determine the impact of changes in liquidity levels on the profitability of commercial banks in Kosovo. The study is based on secondary data for nine commercial banks in Kosovo over 9 years, respectively for the period from 2011 to 2019, taken from the audited annual statements of these financial institutions. The study measures the relationship between liquidity management and profitability and its impact on profitability. In order to process the data, regression analysis and correlation were used, while the findings determine whether there is a significant relationship between liquidity management and profitability in commercial banks in Kosovo. The current ratio, the quick ratio, the cash ratio and the capital adequacy ratio have been taken as liquidity indicators, while return on assets and return on equity are considered as profitability indicators.
