About business loans
What is asset-based borrowing (a secured loan)?
Asset-based borrowing is when the company owner borrows from the assets they have to obtain the loan. The asset can be either an individual asset, such as the family home or an company asset like a truck or other piece of machinery.
The majority of the lenders not just the largest banks, are inclined to secure loans against an asset. If you’re having trouble paying back the loan then your asset may be offered for sale by the lender. In essence it is an opportunity to secure additional financing using the value of what you already own.
Do I need security to get a company loan?
For loans of up to $150K, it is not necessary to secure assets before you are able to access the money however, we do need an individual guarantee. So long as you comply with the loan terms (as detailed in your loan contract document) the security of assets is not needed.
