A secured business loan uses physical assets such as property, machinery, or vehicles to finance the loan. While an unsecured business loan doesn’t require tangible collateral, be aware that you might still need to provide some type of security such as a personal guarantee. Unsecured business loans tend to suit smaller amounts with shorter repayment terms. The turnaround for approval can be quicker, but they can also come with a higher rate.
