What are the implications for the shape of the yield curve according to the liquidity theory? The yield curve:

A)
 must be upward sloping.
B)
 may have any shape.
C)
 is always flat.

The liquidity theory holds that investors demand a premium to compensate them to interest rate exposure and the premium increases with maturity. Even after adding the premium to a steep downward sloping yield curve the result will still be downward sloping.
