What is a Loan Promissory Note?
A loan promissory note is a contract between the lender and borrower that details the conditions of borrowing money. It includes information such as what type of loan it is, how much money was borrowed, when the repayment will be made, and who is responsible for paying back this amount.
A promissory note can have many uses in business but most commonly they are used to secure a loan from a bank or other lending institution. In order for someone to receive credit from their bank, they need to provide these documents as proof of financial security.
The key points in a loan promissory note include the grantor, borrower, interest rate (if applicable), length of time for repayment (term), collateral if necessary, and whether there is recourse if the borrower defaults on their obligation or not.
