About business loans

How do you define asset-based lending (a secured loan)?

The term "asset-based" refers to borrowing where a company owner uses an asset that they own to obtain the funds for a loan. The asset could be an individual property, such as the family home, or a business property like a truck or piece or equipment.

The majority of lenders, including the banks with the biggest size, prefer to make loans secured by assets. If you are having difficulty paying back the loan, your assets could be taken over by the lender. In essence, it’s the process of securing new financing using the value of what you already own.

Do I need security for a company loan?

For loans that exceed $150K, it is not necessary to secure assets prior to the loan’s access but we do require the personal guarantee. If you adhere to your loan obligations (as detailed in your loan contract) and you are able to meet your obligations, asset security will never be required. For loans that exceed $150,000, generally, you can get personal ensure and security that is in the form the charge of assets.
