Discussion prompt: Does the borrower keep possession of the pledged asset?

Author Best Answer

It means pledging an asset as security while retaining possession. A borrower can continue using a home even though it secures a loan. That is different from physically handing collateral over to the lender. The term describes the security arrangement; it does not mean the borrower can ignore loan obligations or that foreclosure happens without legal procedures.
