About business loans
What’s an asset-based borrow (a secured loan)?
An asset-based loan is when an company owner utilises an asset they own to secure the loan. The asset can be either an individual asset, such as the family home or it could be a company asset such as a vehicle or piece of equipment.
The vast majority of lending institutions, including the major banks, prefer to guarantee loans against an asset. If you’re having trouble paying back the loan then the asset might be taken over by the lender. In essence, it is an opportunity to secure new financing by taking advantage of the value of what you already own.
Are I require security to secure a company loan?
For loans up to $150,000 there is no requirement for asset security upfront to access the money however, we do require an individual guarantee. In the event that you fulfill the loan terms (as specified in the loan contract) the security of assets is not required. If you take out loans in excess of $150,000 typically, you will need the option of a personal guarantee and security that is in the form the charge of assets.
