They can be transferred by mere delivery or by endorsement. The delivery of these documents actually amounts to a symbolic delivery of goods represented by them. Banks find it easy to deal with these documents than physically dealing with goods. Hence, these documents are very popular among banks. The following are the important documents of title to goods: • 1. Bill of lading • 2. Dock warrant • 3. Warehouse keeper’s certificate • 4. Delivery order • 5. Railway receipt and lorry receipt

  13. Advances Against Stock Exchange Securities • Shares and debentures which are regularly purchased and sold in the stock exchange may be accepted as security by the bank. A stock exchange is an organized market where securities are purchased and sold. The securities traded on the floor of a stock exchange include the following: (a) Bonds issued by the Central and State Governments.
