neutral  Monika Leit: Ein mortgage loan ist ein normales Hypothekendarlehen und hat mit einer Anleihe meines Wissens nach nichts zu tun - oder wird das in der Schweiz ander gehandhabt?

neutral  Steffen Pollex (X): Sorry, Monika: "Anleihe" may also be an old expression just for "loan". Not necessarily does this have to be an expression for a certain type of securities. In this particular case, however, you seem to be absolutely right.

belehnen = beleihen (just for info); kommt aus frühere Zeit: jmdm ein Lehen übergeben = ihm etwas als Lehen, Leihgabe zur Verfügung zu stellen.

agree  Steffen Pollex (X): Seems the only logical explanation here: a bond, because it has been "bought back by the bank upon maturity". Therefore, it's probably a security.

agree  Kieran McCann: in the hands of the holder, a bond is an asset like any other and can be used to raise a further loan, pledged as security, deposited as collateral etc, though 'mortgaged' normally applies to property. More context is needed to be sure what is right here

secured loan


Explanation:
would be the simplest answer in the absence of more context.

Bonds (corporate and government) are publicly traded and there is no indication the instrument we are talking about falls into such category
