The term "asset-based" refers to borrowing where a business owner borrows from an asset that they own to get the funds for a loan. The asset can be either an asset belonging to the personal, like the family home, or a company asset such as a truck or other piece of machinery.
The vast majority of banks, even the major banks, prefer to guarantee loans against assets. If you are having difficulty paying back the loan, then your asset may be taken over by the lender. In essence it is the process of securing additional financing using the value of what you already have.
Up to $150,000 in loans there is no requirement for asset security before you are able to access the money but we do need a personal guarantee. So long as you comply with the loan terms (as stipulated in your loan contract document) the security of assets is not needed. For loans over $150K generally there is the option of a personal ensure and security is provided in the form of the charge of assets.
