Guarantees and security enforcement in Syria

How we help with guarantees and security enforcement

• Evidence and document review

  Our review covers loan and guarantee documents, security registration, demand, account reconciliation and enforcement notices. We identify what supports your position and what needs clarification or further evidence.

• Is a personal guarantee the same as security over a particular asset?

  A personal guarantee concerns another person's undertaking to pay if the debtor does not; an asset security concerns rights over identified property. The published Civil Code and the Syrian legal encyclopedia distinguish those structures. Identify the signed undertaking, secured debt, amount and release terms rather than assuming ownership of collateral makes someone personally liable for every balance. Distinguish the principal debt, personal guarantee and asset security. Check the signed terms, secured amount, triggering event, demand and payments already made. Liability and enforcement steps must be assessed for each instrument rather than assumed from the loan balance alone.
