Oops! Did You Just Sign a Personal Guarantee?

 Oops! Did You Just Sign a Personal Guarantee? 😨 Read This Before It’s Too Late!

One of the most misunderstood aspects of business loans and credit agreements is Personal Guarantees. A common client question we receive is:

💡 "What are the risks of signing a personal guarantee for a business loan?"

📜 What is a Personal Guarantee?

A personal guarantee is a legal promise where a business owner or director personally commits to repaying a loan if the company fails to do so. Sounds harmless? Think again! 😳

📉 Risks of Signing a Personal Guarantee

✅ Unlimited Liability! 🚨 – If your company defaults, the lender can come after your personal assets (house, car, savings)! Say goodbye to "limited liability"! 😱

✅ Impact on Credit Score 📉 – If the loan is unpaid, your personal credit score tanks, making it harder to get loans in the future! 💳

✅ Seizure of Assets 🏠 – Some lenders require collateral, meaning your personal property could be taken away in case of default!

✅ Joint & Several Liability 👥 – If you have co-signers, lenders can chase any one of you for the full amount, even if others fail to pay! 🚨

✅ No Escape Route! ❌ – Personal guarantees don’t vanish if you leave the company. Even if you quit, you could still be legally bound!

🔥 How to Protect Yourself?

✔️ Negotiate a limited personal guarantee (set a fixed liability cap)
✔️ Avoid signing unsecured loans with personal guarantees
✔️ Check indemnity clauses to avoid unlimited liability
✔️ Consider getting personal guarantee insurance 🏦
✔️ Consult a business lawyer before signing!
