Asset-Based Lending, an alternative funding option, helps businesses work through challenges as they experience rapid growth, navigate a turnaround, change ownership, or experience other complex situations. Unlike traditional lending, typically when lenders evaluate companies for Asset-Based Lending funding, they consider collateral, like accounts receivable and inventory, rather than the business’s recent performance.
