Investopedia explains 'Accommodation Endorser'
Accommodation endorsers typically have some relationship with the borrowing person. Typical examples would include a parent company endorsing a subsidiary or a parent endorsing a child with no credit rating. The advantage of having an accomodation endorser may not only include obtaining credit, but may result in a reduced rate of interest as well.
