The term "asset-based" refers to borrowing where the company owner utilises assets they own to make a loan. The asset can be an individual asset, such as the family home or it could be a company property like a truck or piece or equipment.
The vast majority of lending institutions, including the largest banks, are inclined to secure loans against an asset. If you are having difficulty paying back the loan then your assets could be transferred to the lender.

For loans of up to $150,000, no asset security is required upfront to access the money however, we do require the personal guarantee.
