Without Recourse Note Explained

Sure, I'd be happy to explain further.
When a note (such as a promissory note) is endorsed "without recourse," it means that the person or entity endorsing the note (the endorser) is not liable if the note is not paid by the maker or issuer. Essentially, this type of endorsement transfers the ownership of the note to another party, but without guaranteeing that the payment obligations will be met. Here are some key points:
- **Endorser Liability**: The endorser does not have to pay if the issuer defaults.
- **Risk Transfer**: The risk of non-payment is transferred to the new holder of the note.
- **Common Use**: Often used in the sale of notes between financial institutions.
