cash reserve
Emergency money stash
Cash reserve is money set aside and kept readily accessible for emergencies or unexpected expenses.
Businesses maintain cash reserves to cover operating costs during slow periods or sudden downturns.
Individuals build cash reserves as financial cushions: Financial advisors recommend keeping three to six months of expenses in cash reserves.
Banks are required to hold cash reserves against deposits.
