Collateral loans are loans that the credit union obtains a security interest, or lien, on the collateral being used to secure the loan. These loans generally have a lower interest rate because of the risk. The value of the collateral offered must either meet or exceed the requested loan amount.Because the credit union has a security interest in the collateral, the member is generally required to maintain insurance to protect the collateral.
