About business loans
What’s an asset-based borrow (a secured loan)?
Asset-based borrowing occurs when a company owner utilises assets they own to make a loan. The asset could be an asset belonging to the personal, like the family home or an business asset such as a truck as well as a piece of machine.
The majority of lending institutions, not just the largest banks, are inclined to guarantee loans against an asset. If you’re struggling to pay back the loan then the asset could be transferred to the lender. In essence it is a way of securing new funding taking advantage of the value of what you already own.
Do I need security for an business loan?
For loans that exceed $150K, it is not necessary to secure assets upfront to access the money however, we do require the personal guarantee. As long as you follow the loan terms (as specified in your loan contract document) the security of assets is not required. For loans that exceed $150K, generally, you are able to get an individual ensure and security in the form of charges on assets.
