GENERAL COVERAGE
![Page 3: Professor Hugh Beale OUTLINE OF A TYPICAL PPSA SCHEME.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022072010/56649dac5503460f94a9bfcc/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Any device with a security purpose, created by any party company, sole trader/partners, consumer
Traditional securitiesPledge, mortgage or charge, contractual lien
Fixed and floating charges not distinguishedSI may authorise debtor to dispose of some or all
collateralDebtor has power to dispose of cash, inventory and
other items usually sold
SCOPE OF APPLICATION
![Page 4: Professor Hugh Beale OUTLINE OF A TYPICAL PPSA SCHEME.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022072010/56649dac5503460f94a9bfcc/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
• Conditional sales, Hire-purchase agreements, Finance leases
• Consignments (and sometimes other…)• Retention of title clauses for inventory
– Priority and perfection rules apply• PMSI super-priority
– On D’s default, treated as security only • any surplus to D• SP must resell in reasonable fashion
• No need to distinguish• “single security interest”
QUASI-SECURITY
![Page 5: Professor Hugh Beale OUTLINE OF A TYPICAL PPSA SCHEME.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022072010/56649dac5503460f94a9bfcc/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
• Operating leases, commercial consignments (e.g. floor plans with sale-or-return) • “Deemed SIs”
• UCC: outside scheme - but if in doubt file!
• Canada, NZ: Operating leases > 1 year, commercial consignments– file or lose effectiveness and priority– rights on D’s default not affected
REGISTRATION OF SIMILAR-LOOKING TRANSACTIONS
![Page 6: Professor Hugh Beale OUTLINE OF A TYPICAL PPSA SCHEME.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022072010/56649dac5503460f94a9bfcc/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Perfection and priority rules applySurplus rules do not
Even if on recourse basisFinancier may collect in full
OUTRIGHT SALES OF RECEIVABLES
![Page 7: Professor Hugh Beale OUTLINE OF A TYPICAL PPSA SCHEME.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022072010/56649dac5503460f94a9bfcc/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
• SP (or agent) may file to perfect SI• Filing before or after security
agreement• Multiple transactions with same debtor• Voluntary, but unfiled non-possessory
SI– ineffective in debtor’s insolvency– loss of priority against other SPs– ineffective against buyers who don’t know
of SI
“NOTICE FILING”
![Page 8: Professor Hugh Beale OUTLINE OF A TYPICAL PPSA SCHEME.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022072010/56649dac5503460f94a9bfcc/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
• No submission of charge document• Financing statement -
– Borrower’s (‘debtor’s) name and address– Creditor’s (‘secured party’s’) name and
address– brief details of property (‘collateral’)
• On-line registration• On-line searching
NOTICE FILING
![Page 9: Professor Hugh Beale OUTLINE OF A TYPICAL PPSA SCHEME.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022072010/56649dac5503460f94a9bfcc/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
• Filing a financing statement• Possession (by SP or 3rd person
holding for SP)• Automatic perfection (i.e. when SI
attaches)• Temporary perfection
– ‘Continuous perfection’ when method changes
• Control (investment securities, bank accounts)
METHODS OF PERFECTION
![Page 10: Professor Hugh Beale OUTLINE OF A TYPICAL PPSA SCHEME.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022072010/56649dac5503460f94a9bfcc/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
• Date of filing (or perfection by possession)
• SP with control has priority• SP who provided finance to buy the
collateral has priority over previously perfected SIs (PMSI ‘super-priority’)– ‘purchase-money security interest’ (PMSI)– whether supplies collateral or finances
purchase– ‘cross-collateralisation’
– Provided registration and notice
PRIORITY VS SECURITY INTERESTS
![Page 11: Professor Hugh Beale OUTLINE OF A TYPICAL PPSA SCHEME.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022072010/56649dac5503460f94a9bfcc/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
SI normally attaches to proceedsWith same priority
ProceedsProceeds of saleFruitsProducts (commingled goods, accessions, new
goods)
Thus RoT supplier’s PMSI priority continues into new goods, proceeds But as against receivables financier, by date of registration
PROCEEDS
![Page 12: Professor Hugh Beale OUTLINE OF A TYPICAL PPSA SCHEME.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022072010/56649dac5503460f94a9bfcc/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
• Unperfected (unfiled) SI ineffective against buyer who doesn’t have actual knowledge of it
• Perfected SI effective against buyer, unless– buys from D in ordinary course of D’s
business– small value for private purposes
PRIORITY AGAINST BUYERS
![Page 13: Professor Hugh Beale OUTLINE OF A TYPICAL PPSA SCHEME.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022072010/56649dac5503460f94a9bfcc/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• File and search by VIN• If FS omits VIN, SI ineffective against
buyer unless has actual knowledge of SI
• If filed, SI effective against any buyer except– sales by dealer in ordinary course of
business, where B takes free of SI created by the dealer [(but not by a previous owner)]
MOTOR VEHICLES

Greater publicityIf search at each stage, existing SIs
will be revealedOtherwise, check at each stage of
provenance
NON-SERIAL NUMBER EQUIPMENT

• Scheme for distribution of surplus and payment of deficit
• n/a ‘deemed’ SIs• Remedies• Some mandatory
• Surplus rules• Notice of sale
• Good faith provision on manner of sale
