Description
Security decides who gets paid when businesses fail. Without it, recovery becomes unlikely. This session focuses on how security works in practice and why many arrangements offer false comfort. Priority, enforceability, and structure matter more than promises. Understanding this changes how debt is assessed and how risk is managed before money is lost.
