The term combines 'financial', originating from late Middle English via Old French 'financ' (from Medieval Latin 'finantia', meaning settlement or cash), with 'squeeze', of uncertain Germanic origin first recorded in Middle English meaning to press tightly. Together, the compound phrase gained prominent currency in modern economic journalism during the late 20th and early 21st centuries to describe periods of acute monetary pressure on households or businesses.
