Equipment Trust Certificate is a security which is collateralized by specific equipment, often capital in nature. The title is held in trust until the obligation is satisfied. However, the borrower is permitted to use the item provided there are no defaults precluding usage. This security operates in a manner similar to a mortgage or hypothecation agreement.
