A quick definition of conversion security:

A conversion security is a type of collateral that is pledged to guarantee the repayment of a debt. It can be anything from a stock or bond to a certificate of deposit or even a right to purchase something. Essentially, it is something of value that a creditor can take if the debtor fails to repay the debt. It is important to note that securities do not have intrinsic value, but rather represent ownership or creditor rights in something else.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Conversion security is a type of security that is used as collateral to guarantee the repayment of a debt. It is an assurance given to a creditor that they will be repaid any money or credit extended to a debtor, usually with interest.

For example, if you take out a loan from a bank, the bank may require you to provide a conversion security, such as a property or a valuable asset, as collateral. This means that if you fail to repay the loan, the bank can seize the conversion security to recover their money.

Conversion security can also refer to an instrument that represents ownership rights in a company, such as stocks or bonds. These securities are traded on the stock market and their value depends on the financial condition and future prospects of the company.

Overall, conversion security is an important concept in finance and is used to provide assurance to creditors and investors that their money is safe and will be repaid.
