Canada Debt Collections
There are many reasons to borrow money, and there are many types of loans to satisfy the needs of borrowers. A primary distinction between loan types is whether the loan is secured or unsecured.
A secured loan is made when the lender will not lend the money wanted without having some sort of security. The security can be a home, a car, a refrigerator, investments and many other pieces of property that make the lender comfortable loaning the money. The lender knows that it can get back all, most or some of the money lent by seizing the secured property and selling it to the highest bidder.
An unsecured loan is made by the lender with the belief that the borrower will be paying back the loan through future earnings or the sale of assets. Examples of this type of debt are credit cards, payday loans, student loans, and other simple lending/borrowing situations. The lender has no right to seize any specific assets in this case, and is depending on the good word and earnings of the borrower.
