6 WHY ARE FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS NOT WILLING TO LEND TAKING MOVABLE PROPERTY AS COLLATERAL? LACK OF ADEQUATE LEGAL FRAMEWORK - Restrictions on types of assets - Priority of creditors unclear - Enforcement issues LACK OF REGISTRY OF SECURITY INTERESTS IN MOVABLES - Dysfunctional registry - No registry, lack of publicity, no transparency LACK OF KNOW HOW ON MOVABLE ASSET LENDING - Have never done that type of financing - Do not have the staff with skills NOT INTERESTED - Not their type of business - No competition in the lending market - Revenues from other sources (TB) - Other reasons

13 SECURED TRANSACTIONS GENERAL PRINCIPLES PRINCIPLE 1: BROAD SCOPE OF RIGHTS THAT CAN BE CREATED ON ALL TYPES OF MOVABLE ASSETS Security rights (possessory and non-possessory) in all types of movable assets, tangible or intangible, present or future, including their products and proceeds All legal and natural persons should be able to create security rights. All property rights created contractually to secure the payment of an obligation, including: assignments of receivables, retentionof-title sales and financial leases (Functional Approach). 13

14 SECURED TRANSACTIONS GENERAL PRINCIPLES PRINCIPLE 2: PUBLICITY OF SECURITY INTEREST IN MOVABLE COLLATERAL All kinds of claims against movable property must be publicized to make them transparent to third parties. Publicity is commonly provided by registration in a public registry, but may be provided by other means such as possession by the creditor or control by the creditor or an agent of the creditor. 14

15 SECURED TRANSACTIONS GENERAL PRINCIPLES PRINCIPLE 3: PRIORITY OF SECURITY INTERESTS IN MOVABLE COLLATERAL Determines the sequence in which competing claims to the same collateral will be satisfied when the debtor defaults on one or more of the claims. Clear policies and no conflict of laws are key. Clear policies based on two main principles: 1. The order in which competing interests were made transparent to third parties determines the order of priority 2. Exceptions to this rule require clear policies explaining the rationale for that exception (Purchase Money Security Interest) 15

16 SECURED TRANSACTIONS GENERAL PRINCIPLES PRINCIPLE 4: ENFORCEMENT OF SECURITY INTERESTS IN MOVABLE COLLATERAL Process for enforcing a claim against movable property when the debtor defaults on the secured obligation. Key principles: 1. Immediate right to possession by creditor upon default by debtor 2. Disposition (private or public sale) of the collateral by the creditor 3. Distribution of proceeds in priority sequence 4. Rights of the debtor during enforcement proceedings (appeal after seizure, notification of disposition) 16

17 Key Constraints to Effective Secured Lending Practices in Iraq Legal framework for secured lending is outdated which restricts ability of SMEs to borrow against movable assets & for creditors to protect their rights effectively. Enforcement mechanisms are weak which delays and increases the cost of repossession. Self-help procedures not possible, even if parties agree. Priority scheme for creditors is unclear which increases uncertainty and raises risks to creditors, thus reducing their willingness to lend against movable property. No uniform, centralized collateral registry limits transparency and increases uncertainty related to rights of creditors and their priorities when lending against movable collateral.
