About business loans
What exactly is an asset-based loan (a secured loan)?
An asset-based loan is when the business owner utilises the assets they have to make the funding. The asset could be an individual property, such as the family home, or an company asset such as a vehicle or piece of equipment.
The vast majority of banks, including the big banks, tend to make loans secured by assets. If you’re struggling to pay back the loan, the asset could be sold by the lender. In essence it’s an opportunity to secure additional financing using the worth of the asset you already have.

For loans of up to $150K, it is not necessary to secure assets upfront to access the money but we do require an individual guarantee. In the event that you fulfill your loan obligations (as detailed in your loan contract document) Asset security will never be required.
