When a business takes out a loan, it is expected to repay the loan according to the terms agreed upon in the loan agreement. However, if the business fails to make timely payments or stops making payments altogether, the business is said to be in default. Defaulting on a loan can have serious consequences for a business, including:
To avoid defaulting on a loan, businesses should carefully consider their ability to repay the loan before taking it out. Businesses should also work closely with their lenders to develop a repayment plan that works for both parties.
