About business loans

What is asset-based borrowing (a secured loan)?

Asset-based borrowing occurs when the company owner uses an asset that they own to make a loan. The asset can be an individual property, such as the family home, or it could be a business asset such as a truck or piece of equipment.

The vast majority of lending institutions, not just the largest banks, are inclined to secure loans against assets. If you are having difficulty paying back the loan, your assets could be taken over by the lender. In essence, it’s a way of securing additional financing using the value of what you already own.

Should I need security to get a company loan?

For loans up to $150K it is not necessary to secure assets upfront to access the money however, we do need the personal guarantee. As long as you follow the loan terms (as detailed in your loan contract) the security of assets is not needed. For loans that exceed $150,000, generally there is an individual guarantee and security that is in the form a charge over assets.
