ROLLING STOCK TITLE SECURITY:South Africa • Under South African law, movable assets are classed as • Corporeal (eg vehicles, equipment, aircraft, computers) or • Incorporeal (eg receivables, shares, credit balances in bank accounts) • The forms of real security available and recognised on insolvency for corporeal movable assets are: • Liens (right of retention) • Pledges • Notarial bonds (special and general) registered in Deeds Office • Reservation of ownership

  3. ROLLING STOCK TITLE SECURITY:South Africa • There is no central registry of pledges, liens or reservations of title. • Where a corporeal movable asset is secured by means of a special or general notarial bond, the notarial bond is registered in the Deeds Office for the jurisdiction in which the debtor carries on business, the security interest is registered. • In certain cases there are national registries that record and identify corporeal movable assets per national asset serial numbers, and in some cases, also record security interests: • Motor vehicles (eNatis) • Aircraft (Civil Aviation Authority Register) • Ships (Shipping Register)
