Hypothecate. To pledge property as security or collateral for a debt. Generally, there is no physical transfer of the pledged property to the lender, nor is the lender given title to the property; though he has the right to sell the pledged property upon default. Moore v. Wardlaw. C.C.A.Tex., 522 S.W.2d 552, 554. See also Pledge; Rehypothecation. Rehypothecation. To pledge to another or to transfer to another a note, goods, or other collateral which have been already pledged, e.g. a broker may pledge securities pledged to him by a customer (under e.g. a margin account) to finance his borrowings from a bank.
