About business loans

How do you define asset-based lending (a secured loan)?

Asset-based borrowing occurs when the company owner utilises assets they own to get the funds for a loan. The asset could be an asset belonging to the personal, like the family home or a company property like a truck or other piece of machinery.

The vast majority of banks, not just the big banks, tend to guarantee loans against assets. If you’re struggling to pay back the loan then your asset may be sold by the lender. In essence it’s a way of securing additional financing taking advantage of the value of what you already own.

Do I require security to secure an business loan?

If you adhere to your loan commitments (as detailed in your loan contract document), asset security is not needed. For loans of over $150K typically, you will need personal ensure and security in the form charges on assets.
