About business loans
How do you define asset-based lending (a secured loan)?
The term "asset-based" refers to borrowing where an business owner makes use of assets they own to obtain a loan. The asset may be a personal asset like the family home or a company property like a truck or piece of equipment.
The majority of the lenders even the banks with the biggest size, prefer to guarantee loans against an asset. If you’re having trouble paying back the loan, your asset may be taken over by the lender. In essence it’s the process of securing new financing by taking advantage of the value of what you already own.
Should I require security to get an business loan?
For loans that exceed $150K, no asset security is required upfront to access the money however, we do need an individual guarantee. So long as you comply with the terms of your loan (as specified in your loan contract document) the security of assets is not needed. For loans of over $150,000 typically, you will need a personal ensure and security is provided in the form of the charge of assets.
