A Security Agreement lets a lender claim specific assets as collateral when giving out a loan. Under Danish law, these agreements create a legal right called a "security interest" that protects the lender if the borrower can't pay back the debt. Common examples include using business equipment, inventory, or accounts receivable as security.

Danish businesses routinely use these agreements to access financing while following the Danish Securities Trading Act and Registration of Assets Act. The agreement must clearly describe the secured assets and be properly registered with Danish authorities to be legally binding. This registration helps prevent multiple claims on the same collateral and gives the lender priority rights if the borrower defaults.

A Security Agreement becomes essential when your business needs financing but wants to keep operating with its assets. Danish companies commonly use these agreements when taking loans to buy equipment, expand operations, or manage cash flow needs. The agreement lets you offer specific business assets as collateral while continuing to use them in daily operations.

Banks and financial institutions in Denmark typically require Security Agreements for business loans exceeding 50,000 DKK. They're particularly valuable when seeking better interest rates or longer repayment terms. Manufacturing companies often use their machinery as collateral, while retail businesses might secure loans against their inventory or accounts receivable under Danish secured transactions law.

Security Agreements are often confused with Control Agreement in Danish business transactions. While both deal with asset control, they serve distinct purposes and operate differently under Danish law.

• Purpose and Scope: Security Agreements create a direct legal claim over specific assets as collateral, while Control Agreements establish administrative rights and access to accounts without transferring ownership
• Party Structure: Security Agreements typically involve two parties (lender and borrower), whereas Control Agreements usually require three parties (account holder, secured party, and account bank)
• Legal Effect: Security Agreements grant immediate security interests under Danish law, while Control Agreements focus on operational control and account access rights
• Registration Requirements: Security Agreements must be registered with Danish authorities for perfection, but Control Agreements generally don't require public registration
