A consumer debt is like a personal loan that you borrow from a bank or credit company, whereas business debts are incurred in order for a company to take out a loan. Business debts usually come with higher interest rates than consumer debt because they incur risks of defaulting on the loan repayments. Some business loans also need larger deposits than personal loans and are secured by assets such as property or shares. Commercial banks and financial institutions will typically lend money based on their assessment of how much return they can generate.
A consumer debt is an unsecured type of credit provided through banks, lending companies, car dealerships and other businesses that allows consumers to borrow money at favorable terms. Businesses typically use consumer loans to finance the purchase of equipment, vehicles and computers. Consumer debts are usually capped at $50,000 per consumer per bank or lending institution. Consumer loans are usually either unsecured (meaning you don't have to put up any collateral) or with collateral (meaning you have to put up collateral as security for the debt).
Businesses require secured business loans in order to get financing for their operations, whether it's buying materials, machinery or other tools of trade in order to run a company. As with consumer loans, businesses will often apply for these types of business loans based on their assessment of how much return they can generate from lending money.
