For guidance on those requirements in Appendix FM, please refer to FM1.7A - Maintenance Guidance.(b) Promises of third party support will not be accepted, except in the limited circumstances set out in paragraph 21A (and to the extent permitted by that paragraph).

The above is from page 14 of the following document:If the applicant is unable to produce sufficient evidence to meet the adequate
maintenance requirement, they may provide a written undertaking from members of
their family that those members will support the applicant until they are able to
support themselves from their own resources.
The caseworker will need to assess and verify an offer of third-party support in order
to determine whether the applicant satisfies the requirement that they can be
adequately maintained in the UK without recourse to public funds. The caseworker
may request recent evidence of the third party’s assets (for example, original bank
statements or a reasonable equivalent over a period of at least 3 months). It is open
to the caseworker to ask a third party offering long-term support to become a joint
sponsor and to give an undertaking (under paragraph 35 of Part 1 of the Immigration
Rules) to underwrite this commitment.
