net assets

Worth minus debts

Net assets is the value of what remains after subtracting liabilities from total assets—essentially, what an entity actually owns free and clear.

For individuals, this is typically called net worth.

For businesses and nonprofits, net assets appear on balance sheets as the difference between what the organization has and what it owes: The foundation reported net assets of twelve million dollars.
