What this product does

Secured loans: Borrowing against an asset, which lowers the price but puts the asset at risk if you default.

A secured loan gives the lender a claim on a named asset, which can lower the price and puts that asset at risk if payments stop.

Insurance on the asset is commonly required while the security is in place.

Default puts the asset at risk, which is the trade a borrower makes for the lower price.
