About business loans
How do you define asset-based lending (a secured loan)?
Asset-based borrowing occurs when a company owner utilises assets they own to get the funding. The asset can be either an asset belonging to the personal, like the family home, or an business asset like a truck or piece or equipment.
The vast majority of the lenders even the banks with the biggest size, prefer to make loans secured by assets. If you’re having trouble paying back the loan, your assets could be offered for sale by the lender. In essence, it is means of securing new funding using the worth of the asset you already have.
