About business loans
What exactly is an asset-based loan (a secured loan)?
The term "asset-based" refers to borrowing where an business owner borrows from the assets they have to secure the loan. The asset can be either an asset belonging to the personal, like the family home or a business asset such as a vehicle or piece or equipment.
The vast majority of banks, not just the big banks, tend to secure loans against assets. If you are having difficulty paying back the loan then the asset might be transferred to the lender. In essence it is means of securing new financing using the worth of the asset you already own.
Are I need security to secure an company loan?
For loans of up to $150,000, the requirement for asset security is not required before you are able to access the money but we do require a personal guarantee. As long as you follow your loan commitments (as stipulated in the loan contract), asset security is not needed. If you take out loans in excess of $150,000 generally there is an individual ensure and security in the form of charges on assets.
