Difference betwen debentures and bonds

Answer Posted / syed habibul alam (arup)

Bond is a secure loan where as debenture is unsecured.
usually corporates issue debenture to secure their capital.
though both bond & debenture may be for perpitual time, but
it depends on the issure.

Another difference is bond holder has a greater claim on
an issuer's income than a shareholder in the case of
financial distress (this is true for all creditors) but
debenture holders usually does have greater claim than
shareholder.

the main difference is the securitization. And thats for
sure. PLZ send commands on that...
