Lenders will receive 'a promissory note’ when they lend to borrowers.
A promissory note represents the right that the lender will get paid back the principal plus interest after a certain period and receive the RWA in case of the foreclosure of the loan.
Promissory notes can be sold on the market with/without a discount.
The buyer of the promissory note takes the position of the lender. Thus, he will be repaid the principal plus interest by the borrower before the payout date or he may have a chance to claim the RWA in case the borrower doesn't repay the debt.
