Asset-based borrowing is when a company owner uses the assets they have to obtain the funds for a loan. The asset may be a personal asset like the family home or a company asset such as a vehicle as well as a piece of machine.
The vast majority of banks, even the big banks, tend to make loans secured by assets. If you are having difficulty paying back the loan, then the asset might be taken over by the lender. In essence it’s an opportunity to secure new financing by making use of the value of what you already have.
For loans up to $150K there is no requirement for asset security before you can access the money but we do need the personal guarantee. So long as you comply with your loan obligations (as stipulated in your loan contract) and you are able to meet your obligations, asset security is not required. For loans over $150,000 typically, you will need personal ensure and security in the form of an asset charge.
