It's a financial instrument, so it'll probably be bought and sold at some point. Some investors will want to increase their risk, and others will want to decrease it.

Upvoted you because you are correct, but the trick with indentured servitude was that they could sell where you work to a third party, and that in the meantime you had to work for them and no one else. That's what made it just another kind of slavery - the removal of freedom of association.
