18. Securing a Bank Loan

In order to secure a bank loan, XYZ Corporation surren­dered us deposit certificate, with a maturity date of 01 September 1997 to the bank. The corporation defaulted on the due repayment of the loan, prompting the bank to encash the deposit certificate. XYZ Corporation questioned the above action taken by the bank as being a case of pactum commissorium. The bank disagrees.

What is your opinion?
