Legal Update – New Legislation on Secured Transaction (DNLegal 23 Aug 2021)Download

Some of the interesting points include:

  1. Allowing individuals and companies to take security interests over land use rights. Previously, only banks can do so.
  2. Adopting the common law concept of “reasonable period” and for the first time defining what it means especially in the context of enforcement of a security interest (10 days for movable assets and 15 days for real estate).
  3. In respect of security over future assets, the new law states that the secured party will have a security interest over such assets as soon as they are formed.
