What Does Marketable Securities Mean?

Securities that can be converted into cash quickly at a reasonable price; marketable securities are liquid because they exhibit high trading volumes and tend to have short-term maturities of less than one year. Furthermore, the rate at which these securities can be bought or sold has little effect on their prices.

Investopedia explains Marketable Securities

Examples of marketable securities are commercial paper, banker's acceptances, Treasury bills, and other money market instruments.
