Asset-Based Financing

    0.01 sec.
Asset-based financing
Methods of financing in which lenders and equity investors look principally to the cash flow from a particular asset or set of assets for a return on, and the return of, their financing.

Asset-Based Financing
The practice of making a loan secured by an asset. While, in theory, many loans are asset-based ? mortgages are a prime example ? the term most commonly applies to loans secured by something unusual, such as accounts receivable or intellectual property. Businesses take out most asset-based loans and pledge something used to conduct their businesses, such as inventory, as collateral. As with all secured loans, asset-based loans have lower interest rates than unsecured loans. The practice is also called asset-based lending.
