About business loans
How do you define asset-based lending (a secured loan)?
The term "asset-based" refers to borrowing where an company owner makes use of assets they own to obtain the funding. The asset could be an asset belonging to the personal, like the family home or a business asset such as a truck as well as a piece of machine.
The vast majority of banks, even the largest banks, are inclined to secure loans against assets. If you have trouble paying back the loan, your asset may be transferred to the lender. In essence it’s means of securing new financing by using the worth of the asset you already have.
Are I require security for an company loan?
For loans that exceed $150,000, no asset security is required before you are able to access the money, however we do require an individual guarantee. So long as you comply with your loan commitments (as specified in your loan contract document) and you are able to meet your obligations, asset security will never be needed. For loans that exceed $150K, generally, you can get an individual guarantee and security in the form of an asset charge.
