Is the Larger Business Loan a secured loan?

Asset security is required for accessing funds over $150,000. It is usually in the form of a charge on assets, and could include registering this on the PPSR or making as a caveat.

A director’s or personal guarantee is a promise to pay off a credit line that is general in nature rather than specifying the security of a specific asset. The person who is signing the guarantee is personally liable in the event that the business creditor is unable to re-pay the debt.

The Personal Property Securities Register (PPSR) is an online central registry run by the New Zealand Government. It reflects security interests registered in respect of personal property (including the assets or goods). The PPSR allows prioritisation over property that is personal to be assigned according to the date the security interest has been registered.

The caveat can be described as a formal form of document to offer the legal claim against a property.

About business loans

What exactly is an asset-based loan (a secured loan)?

The term "asset-based" refers to borrowing where an business owner borrows from assets they own to secure the funds for a loan. The asset can be either an individual asset, such as the family home or it could be a business asset such as a truck or other piece of machinery.

The majority of lending institutions, even the largest banks, are inclined to make loans secured by assets. If you have trouble paying back the loan then the asset might be offered for sale by the lender. In essence it is an opportunity to secure new financing taking advantage of the value of what you already own.

Do I require security to get an company loan?

For loans up to $150K there is no requirement for asset security in advance to gain access to the funds but we do require the personal guarantee. As long as you follow the loan terms (as specified in the loan contract) Asset security is not needed. For loans over $150K generally, there is a personal ensure and security is provided in the form of the charge of assets.
