About business loans

What exactly is an asset-based loan (a secured loan)?

The term "asset-based" refers to borrowing where a company owner makes use of an asset they own to obtain the funds for a loan. The asset could be a personal asset like the family home, or a company property like a truck or piece or equipment.

The majority of lending institutions, not just the banks with the biggest size, prefer to make loans secured by assets. If you’re having trouble paying back the loan then the asset could be taken over by the lender. In essence, it is an opportunity to secure new financing by using the worth of the asset you already own.

Are I need security to secure an business loan?

For loans up to $150K there is no requirement for asset security prior to the loan’s access but we do require an individual guarantee. As long as you follow your loan commitments (as stated in your loan contract) the security of assets is not required. For loans that exceed $150K, typically, you will need personal guarantee and security in the form the charge of assets.
