A collateral bond is a type of bond that is secured by physical assets or property. These assets act as collateral and can be used to repay bondholders in case the issuer defaults on the bond. Collateral bonds typically offer lower risk for investors due to the added security of the collateral.

Is the person who hires a bail bondsman responsible for the whole bail amount if the defendant fails their obligation?

When a Bail Bond Company writes a bond, they are responsible for the bond amount if the defendant fails to appear. The indemnitor (person who gives collateral for the bond) is responsible to the extent that they will lose whatever they gave the bondsman for collateral if the bond is forfeited. That is why bond agencies try to find the defendant and bring him to jail before the bond forfeiture hearing, so they do not have to pay the courts the amount of the bond. Bond companies pay the courts in CASH regardless of what type of collateral was used for the bond.

What is the difference between a convertible bond and a convertible debenture?

A convertible debenture is a type of convertible bond. However, a debenture is unsecured debt, which means that there is no collateral for the bond. The alternative to a debenture would be a secured bond such as a mortgage bond that would be secured by real estate. If the company goes out of business, the collateral for the secured bonds would be used to pay off those bonds and the holders of the debentures would be paid from whatever is leftover. Most convertible bonds are debentures.
