Original call for evidence

Summary

Call for evidence on whether the UK should move towards ratification of the convention on international interests in mobile equipment.

This call for evidence ran from
30 July 2010 to 11:45pm on 8 October 2010

Call for evidence description

The Convention and Protocol are 2 separate but complementary instruments which aim to support asset based financing by giving greater certainty, clarity and confidence to financiers of mobile equipment as to the efficacy of their legal rights, resulting in increased flows of capital at lower costs to the borrower, and business opportunities for equipment suppliers. Following recent accession by the EU to the Convention and Protocol we are now seeking evidence on whether the UK should move towards ratification.
