CANADA
Canadian lenders, secure repayment of a loan from a borrower with these Loan Transaction Forms for Canada.
Why should I document a loan to a family member or close friend?
In order to be classified as a secured creditor you must document the loan and get some collateral from the borrower, such as a mortgage on their home or an encumbrance on a vehicle or other asset. This will ensure that the debt is treated as a secured debt.
Secured debts are not automatically wiped out if the borrower declares bankruptcy. Secured debts take priority over unsecured debts, and you will have the legal right to foreclose or repossess and sell any items pledged as collateral if the borrower fails to honour its payment obligations.
What rate of interest can I charge?
If you live in a province or territory which does not have laws governing how interest will be charged on a loan or mortgage, the Canada Interest Act will apply.
If you have not stated whether the interest rate is simple or compound interest, a court would probably rule that only simple interest will be charged.
