secured loans financial

"comprised of $378 million in secured loans"

A secured loan is debt backed by a specific asset—like property, equipment, or inventory—that the lender can take if the borrower fails to repay. For investors, secured loans matter because they lower the lender’s risk and often carry lower interest rates, making them more likely to be repaid than unsecured debt; this affects a company’s credit costs, balance-sheet strength, and the safety of lenders' claims in a default, much like a mortgage reduces a bank’s exposure compared with an unpaid credit card.
