Equitable Charge

An equitable charge is a claim on an asset that does not transfer ownership but grants the lender rights over the asset as security. In accounting, it affects asset disclosure and borrowing arrangements. It ensures lenders have priority claims without restricting the borrower’s operational control of the asset.
