Bus/Financial - Real Estate / maintenance and management of buildings
Portuguese term or phrase: fundo de reserva
this is a charge that for emergency maintenance : "O fundo de reserva de condomínio é quase uma poupança para despesas extraordinárias. O objetivo é utilizar o dinheiro apenas para gastos específicos e indispensáveis, como situações não previstas no plano orçamentário."

Portanto, o fundo de reserva é uma ação preventiva para que eventuais emergências não acabem comprometendo o orçamento do condômino.

Taxa de Fundo de Reserva

No presente caso, os Requeridos, deixaram de adimplir com suas obrigações de pagamento de despesas condominiais vencidas nos meses de 10.09.2019 até 10.01.2021 além do rateio de consumo de gás, rateio de energia elétrica, *fundo de reserva*, e outros itens e melhorias que foram devidamente aprovados em atas de AGE e AGO, registradas no oficial de registro competente, (docs. anexos).

neutral  philgoddard: Contingency would be OK, but emergency sounds a bit dramatic.

  -> Yup, in Portuguese, emergency fund doesn't sound so dramatic. It would be a simple "savings for an emergency" thing.
