A debenture holder is entitled to receive interest on the amount of money they have lent to the company by purchasing a debenture. The interest rate and payment schedule will be set out in the debenture agreement. Unlike shareholders, debenture holders do not have an ownership stake in the company, so they are not entitled to receive dividends, commissions, or a share of the profits. Their return on investment is limited to the interest payments specified in the debenture agreement, and they have no say in the management of the company.
