Asset-based borrowing occurs when an company owner utilises an asset that they own to secure the funds for a loan. The asset may be an asset belonging to the personal, like the family home or an company asset such as a vehicle or piece of equipment.
The vast majority of banks, including the largest banks, are inclined to guarantee loans against assets. If you are having difficulty paying back the loan, the asset might be transferred to the lender. In essence, it is a way of securing additional financing using the worth of the asset you already have.
Should I need security to get a company loan?
For loans of up to $150,000, it is not necessary to secure assets prior to the loan’s access but we require a personal guarantee. need an individual guarantee. So long as you comply with the terms of your loan (as detailed in your loan contract) the security of assets will never be needed. For loans over $150,000 generally, you can get a personal guarantee and security in the form of charges on assets.
