The loan is a mechanism to put teeth in a training contract, ie make it enforceable or at least create more consequences for non-compliance.
As to why an employer needs a training contract...99% of the time it's because it's a horrible place to work and nobody would stay. 1% of the time it might be because you're getting a G-V/650 type and the employer has a legit interest in some ROI on that very expensive and marketable type.
