An asset that a borrower transfers to the possession of a lender as collateral for a loan. The borrower maintains ownership and all associated rights of the pledged asset. When the loan is repaid, the lender transfers possession back to the borrower. The pledged asset reduces the risk to the lender that the borrower will default, therefore possibly qualifying the borrower for some benefit, such as a lower interest rate.

What similarity between contract pledge and mortgage?

Both a contract pledge and a mortgage involve a borrower offering an asset as collateral to secure a loan or obligation.

Both agreements create a legal obligation for the borrower to repay the loan or fulfill the contract, with the lender having a claim on the pledged asset in case of default. Additionally, both require clear terms and conditions to protect the interests of all parties involved.
