• HOLDER
  
  The holder of a loan is any organization that owns the promissory notes signed by the borrower. Lenders sometimes sell loans to other organizations (called secondary markets) and thus transfer the ownership of their promissory notes. A borrower is required to repay his or her loan to the new holder of the loan.
