Collateral loans in Saskatchewan

How the product is defined

Collateral loans: Borrowing against an asset a lender will hold, from vehicles to savings, and what happens on default.

A collateral loan is secured by an asset the lender holds or registers against, from a vehicle to savings, and default puts that asset at risk.

Insurance on the asset is commonly required while the security is in place.

Default puts the asset at risk, which is the trade a borrower makes for the lower price.
