borrower Explanation: Wiki puts it rather nicely, almost poetic: A loan is a type of debt. Like all debt instruments, a loan entails the redistribution of financial assets over time, between the lender and the borrower. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loan My grandmother put it this way "neither a lender nor a borrower be Jim", perhaps prefixed with a "Tha' shalt" as Investopedia doesn't actually give a definition for a plain simple loan (a plain vanilla loan in financial jargo) but its definition of a subprime loan uses the term borrower. What Does Subprime Loan Mean? A type of loan that is offered at a rate above prime to individuals who do not qualify for prime rate loans. Quite often, subprime borrowers are often turned away from traditional lenders because of their low credit ratings or other factors that suggest that they have a reasonable chance of defaulting on the debt repayment. http://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/subprimeloan.asp Of course in a contract you general define the "parties" at the begining "Joe Blogs the party borrowing the money (hereinafter the 'Borrower' and Big Bank the lending party (hereinafter the 'Lender')". Basically in place of 'Borrower' and 'Lender' you have a fair bit of leeway for things like "borrowing party" "loan recipient", but not enough for "silly fool" ;). |
