About business loans

How do you define asset-based lending (a secured loan)?

An asset-based loan is when the business owner utilises the assets they have to get the funds for a loan. The asset could be an individual property, such as the family home or an company asset like a truck as well as a piece of machine.

The vast majority of the lenders even the major banks, prefer to make loans secured by assets. If you have trouble paying back the loan then your assets could be offered for sale by the lender. In essence, it’s a way of securing new financing by taking advantage of the value of what you already own.

Do I need security for an company loan?

For loans of up to $150,000, there is no requirement for asset security upfront to access the money however, we do require a personal guarantee. So long as you comply with the loan terms (as detailed in the loan contract) and you are able to meet your obligations, asset security will never be required. For loans over $150K typically, you will need an individual guarantee and security in the form of a charge over assets.
