Difference betwen debentures and bonds

Answer Posted / vijay gawalkar

Hey Padmavathi the answer that u have given to wrong.

Debenture and bonds are similar except for one difference-
bonds are more secure than debentures.A debenture is an
unsecured loan you offer to a company. The company does
not give any collateral for the debenture but pays a higher
rate of interest to its creditors and bondholders are paid
low interest. In case of bankruptcy or financial
difficulties, the debenture holders are paid later than
bondholders.
