About business loans
What is asset-based borrowing (a secured loan)?
Asset-based borrowing occurs when the company owner borrows from the assets they have to make the funding. The asset could be an individual property, such as the family home or it could be a company asset such as a vehicle or piece or equipment.
The majority of lending institutions, including the big banks, tend to guarantee loans against an asset. If you’re having trouble paying back the loan, your asset may be offered for sale by the lender. In essence, it’s means of securing new financing using the value of what you already have.
Do I need security for a business loan?
For loans of up to $150K, no asset security is required prior to the loan’s access however, we do require an individual guarantee. In the event that you fulfill the loan terms (as stated in the loan contract) and you are able to meet your obligations, asset security will never be needed. For loans of over $150,000 typically, you will need a personal ensure and security is provided in the form of the charge of assets.
