Asset-based borrowing is when an company owner utilises an asset they own to secure the funds for a loan. The asset may be an individual asset, such as the family home or a business asset such as a truck or other piece of machinery.
The vast majority of banks, including the banks with the biggest size, prefer to secure loans against an asset. If you’re struggling to pay back the loan then the asset might be transferred to the lender. In essence it’s the process of securing new funding taking advantage of the value of what you already have.
For loans of up to $150K, the requirement for asset security is not required before you can access the money however, we do need a personal guarantee. As long as you follow the loan terms (as specified in your loan contract) the security of assets is not needed. For loans that exceed $150,000, generally there is the option of a personal ensure and security in the form charges on assets.
