INTRODUCTION
Before advancing loans and advances a bank should make sure that it will get the loan back in
time. Since many borrowers default in repaying loans, borrowers need to deposit assets or give a
guarantee as a testimony of the assurance of repayment. This asset or guarantee is called the
security of credit.
Security is something of value given to a lender by a borrower to support his or her intention to
repay. In the case of a mortgage, the security is the property that the loan is being used to
purchase. Oxford Dictionary of Finance and Banking defines security as “an asset or assets to
which a lender can have recourse if the borrower defaults on any loan repayments”. Hence
security is what the borrower puts up to guarantee repayment of the loan. It may include tangible,
intangible assets or even a personal guarantee
