A security interest is a legal claim a lender or creditor has on a borrower's specific assets to ensure repayment; if the borrower fails to pay, the creditor can seize those assets to recoup losses. For investors, security interests change how risky a company's debt and assets are because they determine who gets paid first in financial trouble—think of it like a mortgage on a house that gives one lender first dibs on the sale proceeds.
