Abstract

This study scrutinizes the correlation between the parameters of energy firm performance and liquidity. The study’s specific objective and central purpose is to gain insights from the context of Malaysia. The process of collecting data focused on the energy firm, with the targeted duration stretching between 2005 and 2017. The database or website from which the data was gained was Thompson Data Stream, Bloomberg, and www.bursamalaysia.com. It is also notable that the study applied or employed a multivariate regression technique to discern the relationship between independent and dependent variables. Particularly, the independent variable constituted the performance of energy companies. From the findings, the study established that the relationship between the performance of energy companies and the parameter of liquidity is statistically significant.
