What is asset-based borrowing (a secured loan)?
An asset-based loan is when the business owner makes use of an asset that they own to make a loan. The asset may be an individual property, such as the family home, or an business property like a truck or other piece of machinery.
The vast majority of banks, even the major banks, prefer to secure loans against assets. If you’re struggling to pay back the loan then your asset may be transferred to the lender. In essence, it is means of securing new funding using the worth of the asset you already have.
Are I need security to secure an business loan?
Up to $150K in loans the requirement for asset security is not required prior to the loan’s access but we do require an individual guarantee. So long as you comply with the terms of your loan (as specified in the loan contract) and you are able to meet your obligations, asset security is not required. For loans that exceed $150,000, generally there is personal guarantee and security is provided in the form of charges on assets.
