Asset-based borrowing is when a company owner utilises the assets they have to obtain the funds for a loan. The asset can be either an individual property, such as the family home or an business asset such as a vehicle or piece of equipment.
The vast majority of banks, not just the banks with the biggest size, prefer to make loans secured by assets. If you’re struggling to pay back the loan then the asset might be transferred to the lender. In essence it’s a way of securing additional financing using the worth of the asset you already have.
