Definitions:

Mortgage Bond

A bond for which the corporation pledges certain assets as security. All such bonds are written subject to an indenture.

Debenture

An unsecured bond; as such, it provides no lien against specific property as security for the obligation. Debenture holders are, therefore, general creditors whose claims are protected by property not otherwise pledged.

Premium

The amount by which the price of a financial asset exceeds its intrinsic value or the additional cost above the nominal value, such as in insurance or bonds.

Unsecured Bond

An unsecured bond, unlike a secured bond, has no collateral backing and relies solely on the issuer's creditworthiness for support.
