About business loans
What exactly is an asset-based loan (a secured loan)?
Asset-based borrowing is when an company owner makes use of the assets they have to make the loan. The asset could be an asset belonging to the personal, like the family home, or a business asset such as a truck or piece or equipment.
The majority of banks, even the largest banks, are inclined to make loans secured by an asset. If you’re having trouble paying back the loan, then the asset could be sold by the lender. In essence, it’s means of securing new funding making use of the value of what you already have.
What do I require security to secure an business loan?
For loans up to $150K it is not necessary to secure assets upfront to access the money but we do need an individual guarantee. So long as you comply with the loan terms (as specified in your loan contract document) and you are able to meet your obligations, asset security is not needed. For loans of over $150,000 typically, you will need the option of a personal ensure and security in the form of the charge of assets.
