senior secured debt


Definition
Debt instruments that get priority repayments if a company defaults. For example, if Company A defaults on their mortgage payments and has only $100,000 with which to pay off their collective $200,000 worth of debts, the parties owning senior secured debts would be paid off before other debtors would be considered. One common senior secured debt instrument is mortgage loans.
