Legal Facts…
- Lenders will normally want security for any lending they make whether to individuals or businesses. This can range from guarantees to charges, mortgages and in the case of companies, debentures.
- The security will often be taken over land, whether freehold or leasehold, but in a commercial context can be over fixtures, fittings, equipment, machinery and intellectual property rights like patents and designs.
