The term "asset-based" refers to borrowing where a company owner utilises an asset that they own to secure the funds for a loan. The asset can be an individual property, such as the family home or a company property like a truck or other piece of machinery.
The vast majority of lending institutions, including the big banks, tend to make loans secured by assets. If you’re having trouble paying back the loan, then the asset could be transferred to the lender. In essence it is the process of securing new funding making use of the value of what you already have.
For loans that exceed $150,000, the requirement for asset security is not required before you are able to access the money, however we do need a personal guarantee. As long as you follow the loan terms (as stipulated in the loan contract), asset security will never be needed. For loans over $150K typically, you will need a personal ensure and security in the form of an asset charge.
