Asset-based borrowing is when the company owner uses an asset that they own to secure the funding. The asset may be an asset belonging to the personal, like the family home or a business asset like a truck or piece or equipment.
The vast majority of lenders, not just the big banks, tend to guarantee loans against assets. If you have trouble paying back the loan, the asset could be transferred to the lender. In essence it’s the process of securing new financing by taking advantage of the value of what you already have.
For loans that exceed $150K, there is no requirement for asset security prior to the loan’s access However, we do need the personal guarantee. As long as you follow the terms of your loan (as detailed in your loan contract) the security of assets will never be needed. For loans over $150,000 generally, you can get a personal guarantee and security in the form of a charge over assets.
