Description
Line of credit refers to the maximum borrowing power that a lender extends to a borrower. The borrower may draw required amounts from the fixed amount. Usually, it is a credit source extended to any credit-worthy business by a bank or any financial institution. A line of credit includes cash credit, overdraft, demand loan, export packing credit, term loan, discounting or purchase of commercial bills, etc.
A secured transaction is created by means of a security agreement in which a lender (the secured party) may take specified collateral owned by the borrower if he or she should default on the loan. Collateral is the property that secures the debt and may be forfeited to the creditor if the debtor fails to pay the debt.
Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code covers most types of security agreements for personal property that are both consensual and commercial. All states have adopted and adapted the entire UCC, with the exception of Louisiana, which only adopted parts of it.
