## What is fund balance?

Fund balance refers to the difference between an individual’s investments and his or her liabilities. It is often used by financial professionals as a way of describing an individual’s net worth.

Fund balance is also known as net worth. Tangible assets like property, vehicles, and collections are included in the fund balance. The only asset not included in the fund balance is intangible assets such as stocks and bonds, which are considered liabilities because they require an investment of money and future earnings to acquire.

Ways you can increase your fund balance include saving money, investing in real estate, and planning for retirement. Ways you can decrease your fund balance include spending money on expensive items, gambling and other types of risky behavior, and using credit cards.

To find out what your fund balance is, add up all of your savings and investments (including retirement accounts like 401k) then subtract your debt (such as mortgages, car loans, credit card debt). If the end result is positive you have a strong fund balance; if it is negative you have a weak fund balance or a negative fund balance.”
