About business loans
What exactly is an asset-based loan (a secured loan)?
The term "asset-based" refers to borrowing where a business owner borrows from assets they own to obtain the loan. The asset may be an individual asset, such as the family home or it could be a business asset such as a truck as well as a piece of machine.
The vast majority of lending institutions, not just the largest banks, are inclined to secure loans against an asset. If you’re struggling to pay back the loan, your asset may be taken over by the lender. In essence, it’s a way of securing additional financing taking advantage of the value of what you already own.
Are I need security for a business loan?
For loans of up to $150K, it is not necessary to secure assets upfront to access the money, however we do need the personal guarantee. In the event that you fulfill the loan terms (as specified in your loan contract document), asset security is not required. For loans over $150K generally, you can get the option of a personal guarantee and security that is in the form an asset charge.
