Intraday Liquidity Monitor

Watches intraday cash and collateral positions across payment systems.

Tracks the bank's cash position across every payment and settlement system through the day, projects the cashflow ladder forward, and warns of a liquidity pinch or a stuck payment before it stalls the queue. Reprojects on each flow change and alerts the treasury funding agent.
