Small Business Loans: Secured vs Unsecured

When searching for loans and financing for your small business, it’s important to understand the difference between a secured and an unsecured loan. The type of loan you choose will affect your interest rate, repayment terms, and any claims that a lender might have on your small business or personal assets.

Every small business needs access to responsible financing, so we’ll break down the differences between secured and unsecured business loans, and what that means to you.

No Collateral? You Can Still Get a Small Business Loan

The majority of small business lenders will require collateral in order to secure a loan. This is especially disheartening for small business owners who do not have sufficient collateral when they need a loan.

The good news? Connect2Capital is building a network of specialist lenders who provide loans without collateral—AKA unsecured loans. If you don’t have business assets to cover your financing, you may still be able to get approved for a loan.

Accounts Receivable Financing vs Invoice Factoring​

A healthy cash flow is vital for any successful business, and there are a couple of services available that can free up money over the short-term. These are known as “invoice factoring” and “accounts receivable financing.” These services can be useful if you send out invoices and your customers don’t pay immediately, as they can provide upfront financing based on several areas.

We’ll explain what each one is so you can decide if either service is a good fit for your business financing needs.

Fixed Rate vs. Variable Rate Loans—What’s Best for Your Business?

If you’re starting a new business or looking to expand an existing one into new products and markets, you need reliable access to money. When it comes to securing funding, you have a few different options.

Lenders provide many types of loans, and two of the most popular are fixed interest rate loans and variable interest rate loans. We’ll break down the differences between the two so you can decide what’s right for you.

Business vs. Personal Credit: Everything You Need to Know

Most of us are aware that we have a personal credit score based on our history with borrowing and repaying money. What you may not know is that many businesses have their own credit scores too, and that can affect their ability to get financing.

If you’re a business owner, it’s important to understand the difference between personal and business credit scores. Things like why they matter, how they influence each other, how you can improve them, and anything else you need to do.

Need a Business Line of Credit? Here are the Requirements to Get One

A healthy cash flow is essential to any small business—access to funding for short-term needs can remove much of the stress of paying for business expansion. In these situations, one option is to use a business line of credit. These specialized financing options give your business access to a revolving loan that you can use to build out services and meet business needs.

We’ll explain what business lines of credit are, how they work, the requirements for applying, and other important things to consider.
