IFRS 13 seeks to increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures through a 'fair value hierarchy'.  
(HQLAs).


High Quality Liquid Assets are ones which are good enough to include as part of a bank's Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) evaluation.


The hierarchy categorises the inputs used in valuation techniques into three levels i.e. Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3.


*Level 1 inputs: quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date.
HQLAs should be:
*Unencumbered;
*Liquid in markets during a time of stress; and
*Ideally, eligible for discounting with the central bank.


*Level 2 inputs: inputs other than quoted market prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.


*Level 3 inputs: unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
