This is a type of debt that redistributes the financial assets over time between the lender and the borrower. In a loan the borrower initially receives money from the lender in order to invest into the business, and is then required to repay the loan (in some cases with interest) in full either in instalments or partial repayments. In regard to the loan, it is provided at a cost, which normally refers on the interest paid on a debt, which actually acts as an incentive for the lender to get involved in the loan, to ensure that it gets repaid.
There are four types of loans, with the first one being a secured loan, where the borrower pledges an asset such as property of a car. One of the most common examples of this type of loan is a mortgage, used by many people to buy a house. Another type of loan is called an unsecured loan which is when the loan is not secured against the borrower’s assets and has taken the form of many things such as through a credit card loan or overdraft. However, the interest rate paid on unsecured loans generally tends to be higher than that of a secured loan. The next type of loan is demand and these tend to be short term loans, and do not have a fixed date for repayments, however they can be called at any time. Demand loans can be either secured or unsecured. The final type of loan is called a subsidized loan, and the level of interest is reduced by an explicit or hidden subsidy.
