 INTRODUCTION
• Financial resilience is the ability to withstand
life events that impact one’s income and/or
assets. Some financially stressful events, such
as unemployment, divorce, disability, and
health problems affect people individually
(O’Neill, 2007).

• Financial resilience is the capability of a person

to endure on emergency situation where they
can support their needs in times of calamities or
disasters financially to continue living.
Resilience is the ability to “roll with the
punches” and deal with life events.
INTRODUCTION

• A person is resilient if he/she have savings on

the bank, have another source of income and or
having a life plan that can be beneficial to
support themselves or their family if time
comes. Financially resilient people use goals to
stay focused on what matters the most while
preparing for the things that could potentially
face off.

• According to Mahul et.al (2019), governments face growing

contingent liabilities from disasters as they tend to shoulder a
significant share of disaster response and recovery costs.
Disaster shocks increase government expenditure and
hamper economic activities.
