Secured Personal Loans
A secured personal loan is where the borrower provides some form of collateral, which is used as security for the debt. Collateral is defined by dictionary.com as 'something pledged as security for repayment of a loan, to be forfeited in the event of a default'. Collateral or security is usually an asset that the lender can assign a value to. This type of personal loan attracts a lower interest rate than that of an unsecured personal loan. This is because there is less risk for the lender. If repayments for the loan are not made than the lender can sell the asset to pay out the loan.
What can be used as security?
There are different items that can be used as security. A secured loan against car is the most common. Caravans, motorbikes and boats can also be used as collateral for a secured personal loan.
