About business loans
What is asset-based borrowing (a secured loan)?
An asset-based loan is when an business owner utilises the assets they have to secure the funds for a loan. The asset can be either an individual asset, such as the family home or a business property like a truck as well as a piece of machine.
The vast majority of lenders, including the largest banks, are inclined to make loans secured by assets. If you’re struggling to pay back the loan, the asset might be taken over by the lender. In essence it is the process of securing new financing by taking advantage of the value of what you already have.
Do I require security for a company loan?
For loans that exceed $150,000, there is no requirement for asset security in advance to gain access to the funds, however we do require the personal guarantee. So long as you comply with your loan commitments (as stated in your loan contract document) the security of assets will never be needed. For loans that exceed $150,000, generally, you can get personal guarantee and security that is in the form the charge of assets.
