Loan Security
Loan Security represents the actual asset or collateral that is pledged against a loan. In secured lending, borrowers provide a security to support their loan application, and this security acts as collateral for the lender.
In Frappe Lending, Loan Security records help users define and manage the specific securities pledged against loans, along with their associated security categories.
