About business loans
What exactly is an asset-based loan (a secured loan)?
Asset-based borrowing occurs when an company owner utilises the assets they have to obtain the loan. The asset could be an individual asset, such as the family home, or a business asset like a truck or piece or equipment.
The vast majority of banks, even the banks with the biggest size, prefer to guarantee loans against assets. If you’re having trouble paying back the loan then the asset could be sold by the lender. In essence, it is the process of securing new financing using the worth of the asset you already own.
What do I need security for a business loan?
For loans that exceed $150,000, no asset security is required before you are able to access the money but we do need the personal guarantee. If you adhere to your loan obligations (as stipulated in the loan contract) the security of assets will never be required. For loans over $150K generally there is a personal guarantee and security in the form of a charge over assets.
