FAQs

Frequently asked questions

What is Asset-Based Lending (ABL)?

Asset-based lending is debt financing secured by the value of business assets such as accounts receivable, inventory, equipment, or real estate. It usually works as a revolving line of credit, so you can access capital when you need it.

How does Asset Based Lending work?

ABL is formula-based. A borrowing base captures eligible assets and availability at a point in time. As you generate new receivables, acquire inventory, or update asset values, those assets can become part of the borrowing formula.

What are the benefits vs bank financing?

ABL emphasizes asset value and liquidity instead of relying only on credit history or static underwriting. That makes it useful for businesses with strong receivables or inventory that need faster, more flexible working capital.

What are the benefits vs raising money?

Asset-based loans can fund rapid growth, seasonal needs, and undercapitalized periods without requiring equity, royalties, or investor control. Your business remains your business.

How does Asset Based Lending save me money?

Because the loan is secured by existing business assets, asset-based lending can offer flexible funding and potentially lower rates than less-secured options, helping you preserve cash over time.

How is ABL different from traditional lending?

ABL focuses on the value and liquidity of specific collateral and often provides revolving availability. Traditional lending usually emphasizes creditworthiness, fixed loan amounts, financial history, and repayment ability.
