ABOUT THIS PRODUCT
Financing Supported by Eligible Collateral
A secured personal loan is a financing arrangement in which an eligible asset may be pledged as security for repayment. The asset, its ownership, its value and the proposed loan conditions are assessed before any financing decision.
How secured financing works
During the application review, the lender may assess the proposed collateral and determine whether it is acceptable for the requested financing. If an application progresses, the security requirements and consequences of default will be explained in the proposed agreement.
Providing details of an asset does not automatically mean it will be accepted as collateral or that financing will be approved.
Possible collateral considerations
- Proof of ownership or legal authority to pledge the asset.
- Asset condition, value and marketability.
- Existing loans, liens or other claims against the asset.
- Applicable valuation and documentation requirements.
- Whether the proposed security meets the lender's conditions.
