Asset-Based Lending (ABL)

Flexible ABL Financing to Improve Your Cash Flow

Turn receivables into ongoing liquidity with an asset-based facility

Overview

What is an ABL (Asset-Based Lending)?

ABL allows businesses to access working capital through a revolving line of credit secured by eligible receivables and inventory, rather than waiting 30, 60, or 90 days to get paid. Instead of relying on a traditional cash flow loan, companies can draw against a borrowing base tied to their balance sheet assets to support liquidity needs as they grow. Ideal for B2B businesses operating on extended payment terms, high receivables, and uneven cash flow cycles, ABL facilities provide scalable access to capital. With faster access to cash from existing assets, companies can take on larger orders, support customer growth, and expand operations without being constrained by payment timing.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQs

What is an asset-based line of credit?

An asset-based line of credit is a flexible financing solution secured by your business’s assets, such as accounts receivable, inventory, or equipment, providing access to working capital that grows with your asset base.

How much can I access?

Access is tied to your receivables. As your sales grow and invoices increase, available capital can scale alongside your business.

Is an ABL considered debt?

Most ABL financing structures are treated as debt on the balance sheet. We can help you evaluate alternatives if that matters.

How does an ABL impact our balance sheet and covenants?

Properly structured ABLs can improve liquidity and help manage leverage and borrowing base constraints.

How is an ABL different from a traditional loan?

Unlike a traditional loan that focuses on your company’s creditworthiness, an ABL is primarily secured by your assets, making it more accessible for businesses with strong collateral but limited conventional borrowing capacity.
