About this template

The Emergency Fund Assessment quantifies how long a client could stay afloat without income. It scores the cash buffer against monthly obligations, speed of access, stability of income, fixed-cost weight and borrowing fallbacks on a 1–5 scale, then converts the answers into a liquidity-readiness profile. The generated AI PDF report translates the score into plain language — how many months of cover they realistically have and which dimension to strengthen first — before any product conversation happens.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Emergency Fund Assessment template?
It is a free, ready-to-use template for financial advisers and insurance professionals.
What counts as an emergency fund in this assessment?
Money you can access within days without penalty or breaking long-term goals — the scoring treats locked savings as weaker cover.
Does the assessment give a target number?
It produces a readiness profile per dimension; typical months-of-cover guidance appears in the generated report as reference, not advice.
Can advisers rerun it with clients?
Yes — share the same link at each review and compare the dated responses to show liquidity progress.
What does the emergency assessment score?
It rates accessible savings against monthly obligations to produce a months-of-cover figure, then the AI report frames a realistic reserve target.
When should the emergency fund be reassessed?
After any change to income, fixed costs or household size — rerunning the assessment updates the months-of-cover score before it becomes a shortfall.
