👉 In economics and finance, "reindebted" refers to someone or something that owes money back to a lender. This is typically done due to an inability to pay back the loan on time, or because the borrower has become unable to repay their debt by reason of illness, unemployment, disability, or other unforeseen circumstances. In this context, "reindebted" can refer to a situation where someone is in financial distress and requires assistance from the lender to pay off their debts.
