Debenture stock is a form of fixed interest security (debt funding) issued by specialist finance companies, authorised to raise funds from the investing public for onlending to carefully selected corporate and private borrowers.

By governing legislation, the permitted activities of each finance company are prescribed in a registered trust deed with a specialist independent trustee company being appointed to monitor finance company performance and act in the interests of debenture stock holders. Should the finance company fall outside its prescribed operating limits and financial ratios as defined in the registered trust deed, Trustee powers extend to demanding immediate repayment of debenture stock capital and even placing the issuing company in receivership if necessary, to ensure security of investment for the debenture stockholders.

First ranking secured debenture stock carries a floating charge across all the assets of the issuing finance company (subject to minor permitted priority charges) and therefore, in priority for repayment, ranks ahead of ordinary creditors, subordinated debt, capital notes, bonds and ordinary shares in the event of a company failure.

Purchase of New Zealand registered debenture stock and other investments may be open to international investors, depending on jurisdiction.
