Titulaire d’une créance nullement garantie qui n’ est fondée que sur un acte sous seing privé. 4, record 2, French, - cr%C3%A9ancier%20ordinaire
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Le titulaire d’une créance chirographaire ne jouit pas, par rapport aux autres créanciers, d’un droit particulier sur les biens de son débiteur. En cas de faillite, les créanciers ordinaires sont payés, au prorata des sommes qui leur sont dues, à même les fonds restant après le règlement des dettes de toutes les autres catégories de créanciers. 4, record 2, French, - cr%C3%A9ancier%20ordinaire
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 2 OBS
En France, un créancier ordinaire n’est différent d’un créancier chirographaire que s’il est prévu contractuellement, comme dans le cas des prêts participatifs ou des titres subordonnés à durée indéterminée (TSDI), qu’un créancier passera après les créanciers chirographaires. En Belgique, le mécanisme du prêt subordonné ou de la créance subordonnée introduit deux catégories de créanciers chirographaires. Ceux dont la créance est subordonnée renoncent au remboursement tant que les autres créanciers ne sont pas payés. 4, record 2, French, - cr%C3%A9ancier%20ordinaire
