hidden funds

Concealed financial reserves

Hidden funds are money concealed from authorities, creditors, or other parties who might have a claim to it.

The term often appears in contexts of financial misconduct—tax evasion, divorce proceedings, or embezzlement investigations: Forensic accountants discovered hidden funds in offshore accounts.

The phrase implies deliberate concealment rather than mere oversight.
