Secured loans, or collateral-based business loans, are financial agreements where your business obtains a lump sum of money. In exchange, you'll repay the money you borrowed over a predetermined period and with interest. Secured loans also require collateral in assets like equipment, inventory, cash or investments. Failure to honor the repayment agreement may result in the forfeiture of your asset.
