The term "asset-based" refers to borrowing where the business owner utilises an asset that they own to obtain a loan. The asset may be a personal asset like the family home or it could be a company asset like a truck or piece of equipment.
The majority of banks, even the largest banks, are inclined to secure loans against assets. If you have trouble paying back the loan then the asset could be sold by the lender. In essence, it is a way of securing new funding making use of the value of what you already have.
For loans that exceed $150K, the requirement for asset security is not required upfront to access the money however, we do need a personal guarantee. As long as you follow the loan terms (as detailed in the loan contract) and you are able to meet your obligations, asset security is not needed. If you take out loans in excess of $150,000 generally, you are able to get an individual ensure and security in the form of charges on assets.
