About business loans
How do you define asset-based lending (a secured loan)?
The term "asset-based" refers to borrowing where the business owner utilises an asset they own to secure the funding. The asset can be either an individual asset, such as the family home or an business asset like a truck as well as a piece of machine.
The vast majority of lenders, not just the banks with the biggest size, prefer to make loans secured by an asset. If you are having difficulty paying back the loan, then the asset might be taken over by the lender. In essence it’s the process of securing additional financing using the value of what you already own.
Do I need security to get an business loan?
For loans of up to $150,000, there is no requirement for asset security prior to the loan’s access but we do need a personal guarantee. If you adhere to your loan obligations (as stipulated in your loan contract) the security of assets is not required. For loans of over $150K typically, you will need personal guarantee and security that is in the form the charge of assets.
