The term "asset-based" refers to borrowing where the company owner uses an asset that they own to get the funds for a loan. The asset could be an individual asset, such as the family home or an company asset such as a truck as well as a piece of machine.
The majority of lenders, not just the banks with the biggest size, prefer to make loans secured by an asset. If you’re struggling to pay back the loan then your assets could be taken over by the lender. In essence it’s an opportunity to secure additional financing making use of the value of what you already have.
For loans that exceed $150,000, it is not necessary to secure assets prior to the loan’s access, however we do require an individual guarantee. If you adhere to your loan obligations (as stipulated in your loan contract) the security of assets will never be needed. For loans over $150,000 typically, you will need the option of a personal ensure and security in the form a charge over assets.
