About business loans
What is asset-based borrowing (a secured loan)?
Asset-based borrowing is when the company owner makes use of the assets they have to make the loan. The asset can be an individual asset, such as the family home, or an company asset such as a truck or piece or equipment.
The vast majority of the lenders including the largest banks, are inclined to make loans secured by assets. If you’re having trouble paying back the loan, then the asset could be taken over by the lender. In essence it is an opportunity to secure additional financing taking advantage of the value of what you already have.
Should I require security for an business loan?
Up to $150K in loans the requirement for asset security is not required before you can access the money but we do require a personal guarantee. As long as you follow the terms of your loan (as stated in your loan contract document) the security of assets is not required. For loans that exceed $150,000, generally there is personal guarantee and security is provided in the form of an asset charge.
