What is a Security Agreement?

A Security Agreement creates a legal security interest in personal or business property used as collateral to secure loans, credit lines, or other financial obligations, protecting lenders' interests in case of default. Essential for secured loans, equipment financing, inventory financing, and business credit arrangements, this agreement establishes lender rights to collateral while allowing borrowers to continue using assets during the loan term. The document typically covers collateral descriptions, debtor warranties, default provisions, enforcement remedies, insurance requirements, and maintenance obligations. Critical for lenders who need asset-backed security for loans, and for borrowers who can obtain better financing terms by pledging collateral, ensuring clear legal framework for secured transactions and protecting both parties' interests in valuable assets.
