How does the emergency-fund calculator work?

Frequently Asked Questions

How large should my emergency fund be?

The common recommendation is 3 to 6 months of expenses. For the self-employed or sole earners, 9 to 12 months is sensible.

Where should I keep my emergency fund?

An instant-access savings account (Tagesgeld) for short-term needs, a money-market ETF for the medium term, and a fixed-deposit ladder (Festgeld) for longer-term goals.

Does the emergency fund count as wealth?

Yes. The emergency fund is part of your total wealth, but it should be held separately from your investments.
