What is debt?

Answer Posted / kavita

Debt is that which is owed; usually referencing assets
owed, but the term can also cover moral obligations and
other interactions not requiring money. In the case of
assets, debt is a means of using future purchasing power in
the present before a summation has been earned. Some
companies and corporations use debt as a part of their
overall corporate finance strategy.[citation needed]

A debt is created when a creditor agrees to lend a sum of
assets to a debtor. In modern society, debt is usually
granted with expected repayment; in many cases, plus
interest. Historically, debt was responsible for the
creation of indentured servants.
