The term "asset-based" refers to borrowing where the company owner borrows from the assets they have to secure the funding. The asset could be an asset belonging to the personal, like the family home, or a company property like a truck or piece or equipment.
The majority of lending institutions, including the banks with the biggest size, prefer to make loans secured by assets. If you are having difficulty paying back the loan, then the asset might be offered for sale by the lender. In essence it is means of securing new financing by using the worth of the asset you already have.
For loans that exceed $150,000, there is no requirement for asset security prior to the loan’s access however, we do need the personal guarantee. In the event that you fulfill the loan terms (as specified in your loan contract), asset security will never be required. For loans of over $150K typically, you will need an individual guarantee and security is provided in the form of charges on assets.
