Secured loans in Yukon
Yukon licenses the lender, and the secured loan is priced and assessed on the file the lender reads.
Yukon licenses consumer credit, so a secured loan signed there follows provincial rules on disclosure and cost, on top of whatever the lender requires.
Read the secured loan description with the Yukon position attached: the product terms come from the lender, and the licensing rules come from the province.
What a secured loan involves
Secured loans: Borrowing against an asset, which lowers the price but puts the asset at risk if you default.
A secured loan gives the lender a claim on a named asset, which can lower the price and puts that asset at risk if payments stop.
A secured product names an asset, and the lender registers or holds a claim against it.
Releasing the security follows repayment, and the lender must discharge its claim.
