French to English Bus/Financial Finance (general)
Would anyone know what the "taux de nantissement" would be in English.

Nantissement is a security or pledge, such as share earnings, against a sum of money. Other types of security may also be used, or property can be used.

Context: "Nous estimons que la hausse du titre depuis le début d’année doit avoir permis de légèrement abaisser ce taux de nantissement"

Thank you for your opinion.
TheFreeDictionary has a different one:
"something valuable given as a guarantee that a promise will be kept or a debt paid "
http://www.thefreedictionary.com/pledge

and of course, it's legal AND financial

:)
Note from asker:
This is a financial document, unfortunately a pledge is purely legal.
