What is Asset-Based Lending?

Asset-based lending (ABL) refers to loans secured by a variety of assets, utilizing the liquid, current assets (such as accounts receivable and/or inventory) or fixed assets (such as plant, property, and equipment) of a business as collateral. The credit risk of ABL is minimized by relying on the value of the underlying collateral.

Commercial finance, also known as commercial credit, is a term associated with the industry group of asset-based lenders that provides various types of asset-based loans to business and commercial borrowers. Asset-based lenders, often termed secured lenders, can meet your asset-based finance needs with the stability to foster a long-term relationship.

Frequently Asked Questions

Generally, yes. Lenders secure a UCC-1 on assets to be in the primary lien position (excluding Real Estate). Non-real estate lenders typically hold a subordinated position behind the asset-based lender.

On-site audits may be required for inventory or real estate collateral. For other loans, such as accounts receivable, the necessity of an on-site audit varies and is determined by the lender.
