A personal or director’s guarantee is a promise to repay credit that is generally in nature rather than defining security over an asset. The person who is signing the guarantee is personally liable in the event that the company the borrower fails to pay back the debt.
The Personal Property Securities Register (PPSR) is a central, national online register that is operated by the New Zealand Government. It contains security interests registered in respect of personal property (including items or assets). The PPSR permits prioritisation over property that is personal to be granted depending on the date that a security interest was registered.

About business loans
How do you define asset-based lending (a secured loan)?
The term "asset-based" refers to borrowing where an business owner borrows from an asset that they own to make a loan. The asset can be either an asset belonging to the personal, like the family home or a company asset like a truck or other piece of machinery.
The vast majority of banks, including the major banks, prefer to guarantee loans against assets. If you are having difficulty paying back the loan, then the asset could be offered for sale by the lender. In essence, it’s means of securing new funding making use of the value of what you already have.
Should I require security to get a company loan?
Up to $150,000 in loans it is not necessary to secure assets prior to the loan’s access However, we do need the personal guarantee. If you adhere to your loan commitments (as detailed in the loan contract) and you are able to meet your obligations, asset security is not required. For loans of over $150K generally there is the option of a personal guarantee and security in the form of an asset charge.
