About business loans
How do you define asset-based lending (a secured loan)?
An asset-based loan is when a company owner utilises an asset that they own to get the funds for a loan. The asset can be either an asset belonging to the personal, like the family home or an company asset like a truck or piece of equipment.
The majority of the lenders including the big banks, tend to guarantee loans against assets. If you’re struggling to pay back the loan, then the asset might be transferred to the lender. In essence it’s an opportunity to secure new funding using the worth of the asset you already own.
What do I require security for a company loan?
For loans of up to $150K, there is no requirement for asset security prior to the loan’s access but we do need the personal guarantee. So long as you comply with your loan commitments (as stated in the loan contract), asset security is not needed. For loans that exceed $150K, typically, you will need a personal guarantee and security in the form of charges on assets.
