Financial Diagnosis

The Financial Diagnosis report analyses income and expenses based on the Nibud classification and calculates key indicators for financial stability.

Financial Diagnosis report

Open More > Reports and select Financial Diagnosis.

The report works with the Nibud group types: Regular income, Incidental income, Fixed expenses, Reservation expenses, Household expenses, Other necessary expenses, and Non-essential. If categories are still in the classic classification (Fixed, Variable, One-off), the report remains usable but less detailed. See Nibud category structure.

  • Result — the structural monthly result and the total monthly result.
  • Fixed expense ratio — percentage of structural income going to fixed expenses. Nibud guideline: below 50%.
  • Incidental income dependency — share of non-guaranteed income (bonus, profit, sale). Nibud guideline: below 25%.
  • Assets and buffer — liquid assets set against necessary expenses, expressed in months. Guideline: at least three months.
  • Data completeness — recency of transactions, categorised percentage, and alignment of account balances.

Based on the indicators, the report gives a final rating: Healthy, Warning, or Critical.

The indicators are also available in the Performance screen. Enable via Diagnosis indicators in Coach under More > Settings. Deviations from recommended values are then flagged.

The report works with monthly averages. A full calendar year gives the most reliable picture. For periods shorter than a year, the forecast checkbox can be used: annual budgets are then distributed evenly across twelve months. See Forecast.
