Solution
The correct option is A Unsecured creditors Unsecured debt is a debt which is not backed up by an underlying asset or we can say it is unsecured. The creditors in this case are high risk takers as there is no guarantee whether the borrow will repay the amount or not. Hence, the directors in the given case will be treated as unsecured creditors.
