Event Synopsis:
Secured transactions are an important feature of the US law and economy. The rules set forth by the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) that harmonizes the law of sales and other commercial transactions across the United States, assure lenders of legal protection in case of problems, which in turn encourages lower interest rates for borrowers.
Join a panel of key thought leaders and practitioners assembled by The Knowledge Group as they bring the audience to a road beyond the basics of the Uniform Commercial Code and as they delve into an in-depth analysis of the recent updates and enforcement issues involving UCC secured transactions. Speakers will also provide the audience with practical strategies for enforcement while overcoming legal issues and pitfalls.
In this live webcast, the speakers will discuss:
· UCC Article 9
- Legal Overview
- Recent Amendments
· UCC and the US Copyright Act - Illustrative Example
- Motion Picture Area, including under National Peregrine Case
· Requirements for Security Agreement
· Perfection and Priority Rules
· Lessons from Significant Court Decisions
· Pitfalls Encountered when Competing Liens and Hidden Liens
· Best Practices
