Emergency Fund Guidelines

No Acute Needs

To address basic necessities, a minimum of 70 euros per adult and 30 euros per child is recommended for a period of three days. This amount covers essential expenses such as nutrition, water, transport, care products, and medication, excluding luxury items and expenses related to pets and smoking products.

Currently, there is no urgent need to withdraw cash. It is advised to build up a reserve gradually, preferably in small amounts and including coins, to ensure appropriate payment options if needed.

Banking Precautions

Having accounts with multiple banks within a household is recommended. Ensure that your debit card and bank app on your phone are functional, allowing for partial usability even if systems are partially operational.
