Real Estate Finance Security Series - EP2: Debentures

In this second episode of our Real Estate Finance Security Series, Anna Shonfeld, an Associate in the firm’s banking team, discusses typical charging provisions and other standard terms of a debenture, when used in connection with a real estate finance transaction.

In this podcast, Anna considers the different types of security ordinarily granted under a debenture and key points to consider when dealing with them, including in relation to compliance with covenants under the debenture and the importance of perfecting of the security.

We hope you enjoy this whistle-stop tour of the debenture and please do look out for the next instalment in our REF Security Series, where we will be focusing on the key points to consider in relation to personal guarantees when given in the context of a real estate finance transaction.  

Anna Shonfeld is a solicitor in the Corporate and Commercial team, specialising in banking work. She advises borrowers and lenders on a variety of different finance transactions including in relation to development finance, investment finance and refinances in respect of various property types.
