What guarantees can be requested from a tenant of commercial premises?

To ensure compliance with the commercial lease, the lessor has several options:

• a deposit to secure the rent;
• a universal movable hypothec on all the company's assets to secure the rent. If the tenant grants such a mortgage, his credit may be affected;
• a bank guarantee or irrevocable letter of credit for a specific sum;
• the intervention of a surety to guarantee, directly and unconditionally, that the tenant observes and complies with each and every one of his commitments.
