Businessman discussing options with businesswoman at a table

Secure, independent and trustworthy

When you take collateral as security for a loan, you may be concerned about how you will enforce rights against the collateral in case of a default. You need a collateral agent or security trustee to protect your position and act on your behalf in such circumstances. 

You can trust Computershare to act as your collateral agent. As an independent third party (agent or trustee), we will hold your collateral and security interests during the term of the loan.

How we can help

With Computershare, you can rest assured the collateral is secure, and you have an experienced provider to help you through the many situations that typically arise.
