About business loans
What is asset-based borrowing (a secured loan)?
The term "asset-based" refers to borrowing where an company owner borrows from an asset they own to get the funding. The asset can be either an individual asset, such as the family home or an business property like a truck or piece or equipment.
The majority of the lenders not just the major banks, prefer to guarantee loans against assets. If you’re struggling to pay back the loan, the asset could be taken over by the lender. In essence it’s an opportunity to secure new funding taking advantage of the value of what you already have.
Do I need security to get a company loan?
For loans that exceed $150,000, no asset security is required upfront to access the money but we do need the personal guarantee. In the event that you fulfill the terms of your loan (as stated in your loan contract) and you are able to meet your obligations, asset security will never be needed. If you take out loans in excess of $150K generally, there is personal guarantee and security that is in the form a charge over assets.
