Asset-based borrowing occurs when an company owner borrows from an asset they own to get the loan. The asset can be an individual property, such as the family home or it could be a business asset like a truck or other piece of machinery.
The vast majority of lenders, including the banks with the biggest size, prefer to guarantee loans against an asset. If you are having difficulty paying back the loan, your assets could be sold by the lender. In essence it is the process of securing new financing using the value of what you already own.
For loans that exceed $150,000, the requirement for asset security is not required prior to the loan’s access however, we do require the personal guarantee. As long as you follow the loan terms (as detailed in your loan contract) the security of assets is not required. For loans of over $150K typically, you will need the option of a personal guarantee and security is provided in the form of charges on assets.
