hypothec (comment by 4uzhoj: Hypothec is a mortgage in Roman and Scots law: Hypothec (/haɪˈpɒθɪk, ˈhaɪpɒθ-/; German: Hypothek, French: hypothèque, Polish: hipoteka, from Lat. hypotheca, from Gk. ὑποθήκη: hypothēkē), sometimes tacit hypothec, is a term used in civil law systems (e.g. the law of all of Continental Europe except Gibraltar) or mixed legal systems (e.g. Scots law, South African law) to refer to a registered non-possessory real security over real estate, but under some jurisdictions it may sometimes also denote security on other collaterals such as securities, intellectual property rights or corporeal movable property, either ships only (ship hypothec) as opposed to other movables covered by a different type of right (pledge) in the legal systems of some countries, or any movables in legal systems of other countries. Common law has two main equivalents to the term: mortgages and non-possessory liens.  wikipedia.org) |
