When unpaid bills are piling up, not to mention late fees and interest charges, it can be difficult to eliminate unsecured credit card debt. But what exactly is meant by unsecured? Unsecured means that the loan has no collateral to back the loan. For instance, a 125 second mortgage uses your house as collateral. A credit card, on the other hand, is not backed by an asset so therefore is classified as unsecured. Banks like secured debt as a means of lowering their risk and as a result the borrower can receive a lower interest rate. The banks feel like it is more likely that they will at least something if the borrower defaults on the loan. Credit cards offer higher interest because of the high risk nature viewed by the banks.
