What is the difference between a collateral loan and a home equity loan?

[Edit]

Answer

OFFHAND I WOULD SAY THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE.

WITH A HOME EQUITY LOAN, THE COLLATERAL THAT YOU OFFER TO THE LENDER, IS YOUR HOME.

WITH A COLLATERALISED LOAN, YOU PUT UP SOME OTHER ITEM THAT YOU OWN,

MAYBE A CAR OR STOCKS OR BONDS IN ORDER TO OBTAIN A LOAN.
