About business loans
How do you define asset-based lending (a secured loan)?
An asset-based loan is when the business owner utilises an asset that they own to get the funds for a loan. The asset can be an individual property, such as the family home or a business asset like a truck or piece of equipment.
The vast majority of banks, even the major banks, prefer to secure loans against an asset. If you are having difficulty paying back the loan, the asset could be taken over by the lender. In essence it is means of securing additional financing making use of the value of what you already have.
