  4. Registration

  5. TRADE CREDITORS’ RIGHTS • Retention of title (RoT) • Hirers and lessors of property • Charges over personal property

  6. Retention of title “We’re not all that worried about PPS. The only impact to us is retention of title. We’re the owner of the goods anyway, so there won’t be any other security interest we need to compete with. If anything, we’ll just register if we’re concerned that a debtor is going to end up in trouble.” National credit manager, large corporate client

  7. The good news Greater rights in respect ofprocessed and co-mingled goods. RoT claim is a ‘PMSI’ which creates a ‘Super Priority’.

  8. PMSI interest creates SUPER PRIORITY.

  9. PMSI and ‘all moneys’ clauses

  10. EXPANDED RIGHTS OF RoT CREDITORS • Processed goods • Co-mingled goods • Accessions

  11. Hirers and lessors PPSA catches hire or lease agreements if they are for: a term of a year or more; an indefinite term; or a term of up to a year that is automatically renewable.

  12. Transitional Provisions • Single or multiple “Security Agreement(s)” • Priority rules

  13. Conclusion • Purpose – to formalise and clarify competing rights • Real –v– personal property • RoT creditors are amongst the potential winners • Transitional provisions • Have a clear plan in place for what and how to register (and if you haven’t registered yet, do so) • Have your terms and conditions reviewed (if you haven’t already)
