A director’s or personal ensure is a promise to repay a loan which is generally based rather than stating security over an asset. The person signing the ensure is personally liable if the company creditor is unable to make the repayment.
The Personal Property Securities Register (PPSR) is a central, national online register operated by the New Zealand Government. It reflects security interests which are registered with respect to personal property (including items or assets). The PPSR grants preference over private property granted in accordance with the date on which a security interest was registered.
The caveat can be described as a formal document filed to provide the public notice of a legal claim on a property.

If you’re requesting the Larger Business Loan that is greater than $250K, we may offer an initial pre-approval that will help smooth out the process.

About business loans
How do you define asset-based lending (a secured loan)?
Asset-based borrowing occurs when a business owner uses the assets they have to obtain the funds for a loan. The asset can be an individual property, such as the family home, or it could be a business property like a truck or other piece of machinery.
The vast majority of the lenders including the largest banks, are inclined to make loans secured by an asset. If you have trouble paying back the loan, your assets could be sold by the lender. In essence it’s an opportunity to secure new funding using the value of what you already own.
What do I need security to secure an business loan?
For loans that exceed $150K, it is not necessary to secure assets before you are able to access the money However, we do need an individual guarantee. As long as you follow your loan obligations (as stipulated in the loan contract) the security of assets will never be needed. If you take out loans in excess of $150K generally, there is the option of a personal ensure and security that is in the form a charge over assets.
