Investopedia explains 'Available Funds'

Available funds may also refer to funds that can be withdrawn from a margin account at a brokerage firm, where margin loans are still outstanding. They can also include the amount that a person can raise on short notice for a specific purpose from, for example, unused credit lines, loans from banks or relatives, or assets that can be liquidated quickly. This amount could include funds from different sources, to determine an individual's or a company's immediate liquidity.
