An asset-based loan is when an company owner utilises an asset that they own to secure the funds for a loan. The asset could be a personal asset like the family home or an company asset like a truck as well as a piece of machine.
The majority of banks, not just the major banks, prefer to secure loans against assets. If you have trouble paying back the loan, your assets could be transferred to the lender. In essence it is the process of securing new financing using the worth of the asset you already have.
