It may be for completing the construction work of your home or for some emergency hospital expenses. Usually all approach some financial institution for a loan.

All financial institutions are running on the interest they are getting on the loans. From this interest they have to maintain their infrastructure, salaries and all other running charges. Besides, they have to give interest to the customers who have deposited money in their institutions. After all these the institutions should make some profit also. All these have to be adjusted with the interest they are receiving from the borrowers. So, you can treat the loan as oxygen for financial institutions. When you fail to repay the loan these institutions will face a lot of problems including financial crunch. This will make them to run the business smoothly and may go for a closer too in some severe cases. To avoid such circumstances, the laws of debt recovery Scotland has made stringent. It will not allow the defaulters to escape with the money.
Again, if you think from the depositor’s side you can find out that he has deposited the money to earn something as interest. He has a confidence in that financial institution and he strongly believes that his hard earned money will be safe there. The institution is giving this as a loan to somebody for a larger interest rate. If everything go smoothly all are happy. But when the borrower fails to repay the money, it is the depositor who suffers a lot. The money he deposited may be a life time saving. Nobody can afford the loss of hard earned money. It is the duty of the state to protect their interest. That is why the debt recovery Scotland rules have been made stringent. It helps the financial institutions to recover the money by many ways. They can acquire the properties of the defaulter and auction it to get back their money. In some cases it proposes even imprisonment to the defaulters if they found to be done purposefully. Although it is strict, the debt recovery Scotland has some provision to consider certain genuine cases on humanitarian basis.
