Description
Personal property security is an important subject in commercial practice as it is the key to much of the law of banking and sale. This book examines traditional methods of securing debts (such as mortgages, charges and pledges) on property other than land, describing how these are created, how they must be registered (or otherwise 'perfected') if they are to be valid, the rights and duties of the parties and how the security is enforced if the debt is not paid.
The third edition has been updated to cover a wealth of cases which have been decided since the last edition. These include new cases on: control of financial collateral, and relief against forfeiture under a financial collateral arrangement; retention of title (including the effect of "extended" clauses); estoppel and the HPI register; availability of set-off against assignee; a number of cases on enforcement of security; equitable liens; solicitor's liens and databases; on priority or purchase money security interests; and the Irish Supreme Court decision on floating charge and crystallisation.
The effect of key legislative changes have also been analysed and these include the 2013 amendments to the Companies Act 2006 Part 25, and issues post-ratification relating to the Cape Town Convention.
The only full-length treatment covering both traditional security over personal property and also devices that fulfil a similar economic function, such as retention of title and sales of receivables, The Law of Security and Title-Based Financing is a frequently-cited and indispensable reference work both for practitioners and academics.

Reviews / Votes
This book offers an authoritative and essential systemisation of the law and a convincing demonstration that whilst the English doctrine on personal property security can broadly work; it is complicated and susceptible to substantial critique. * Dr Sean Thomas, Journal of International Banking Law and Regulation * Corporate lawyers dealing with the myriad forms and ramifications of secured lending - on personal property specifically - will welcome this brand-new edition of this long-established, highly readable and famously authoritative legal text ... For practitioners grappling with the intricacies of this area of law, it is an indispensable resource. * Phillip Taylor MBE, Head of Chambers, and Elizabeth Taylor, Richmond Green Chamber * Review from previous edition This book is as close as one can get to an authoritative and comprehensive text on the law of security and title-based financing in the United Kingdom. Its offers a detailed and critical analysis of the law and it is likely to be valued for its erudition by the publications established readership of practitioners, legal academics, and post-graduate students, who found the first edition such an important source of reference for the law of security and title-based financing. * Tom Burns, Edinburgh Law Review * Building on the successful first edition (bearing the title The Law of Personal Property Security), the same team of well-known academics have produced another excellent work... Apart from being a useful resource, this work should also serve to stimulate debate in many knotty areas of personal property law. * Look Chan Ho, Journal of International Banking Law and Regulation *More details
