A reserve fund is a savings account or similar highly liquid asset used to set aside funds by a business or organization to meet future costs or financial obligations. The funds set aside may be used to cover scheduled, routine, and unscheduled expenses that would otherwise be drawn from a general fund.
Although the fund size may vary, the typical goal is to deposit funds regularly in an account that accrues interest, thereby increasing the fund’s value while not in use. Because expenses may arise unexpectedly, a reserve fund is typically kept in a highly liquid account, such as a savings account.
KCCU has many options to keep your business or organization’s reserve funds separate, safe, and earning income.
Speak with one of our Account Managers for more information on how to set up your reserve fund.
