financial solvency

Able to pay

Financial solvency is the ability to meet long-term financial obligations—having assets that exceed liabilities.

A company with financial solvency can pay its debts as they come due and remain operational indefinitely.

The term appears in banking, insurance, and corporate finance: Regulators questioned the bank's financial solvency.

Distinct from liquidity, which concerns short-term cash availability.
