Another aim was to find out stability of liquidity management policies in both facets of the balance sheet over time. Both quantitative and qualitative methods were applied. Questionnaires were administered to six banks and such financial ratios as Liquid Asset to Total Assets and Total Demand Liabilities to Total Assets from the same banks were computed and treated in one way Analysis of Variance, Regression and Spearman Rank Order Correlation to arrive to conclusion. The study unveiled that liquidity management policies in term of funding and investment in Tanzanian banking sector are built on similar approaches. It was further found that policies under study are not stable overtime.
