Terms Used In Maryland Code, FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS 5-508

  • Corporation: A legal entity owned by the holders of shares of stock that have been issued, and that can own, receive, and transfer property, and carry on business in its own name.
  • Mortgage: The written agreement pledging property to a creditor as collateral for a loan.
  • Mortgagor: The person who pledges property to a creditor as collateral for a loan and who receives the money.
If a banking institution holds a first mortgage on residential property and a private mortgage insurance corporation partially insures the mortgage, the banking institution shall eliminate all charges to the mortgagor for mortgage insurance premiums when the mortgage is reduced to the level at which the federal Homeowners Protection Act of 1998 requires termination of the private mortgage insurance insuring the mortgage.
