Data taken from surveys conducted in over 60 countries,

9 Four Key Policy Principles Legal Framework: Allow Broad Scope of Movable Assets as Collateral Provide Clear Priority Rules Institutional Framework: Have a Centralized Registry Provide For Speedy, Inexpensive Enforcement
10 Four Key Policy Principles PILLAR I: Broad Scope of Movable Assets As Collateral Unlock the Dead Capital Any movable asset with economic value can be used as collateral Minimum formal requirements and low costs to create security interests Use of non possesory security interests should be allowed Freedom of contract should be embraced
11 Four Key Policy Principles PILLAR II: Clear Priority Rules Ensure Predictability in Commercial Transactions Allow the creditor to determine its right vis a vis other creditors
12 Four Key Policy Principles PILLAR III: Publicity through collateral registries Transparency Information sharing Notifies third parties and potential creditors of the existence of a security interest Should be centralized, electronic, fast, accurate and inexpensive
13 Four Key Policy Principles PILLAR IV: Enforcement Repossessing the collateral and selling it to satisfy the claims Speedy, effective and inexpensive enforcement mechanisms Out of court or summary proceedings
14 Implementation Challenges At the Design Stage Lack of understanding of the reform benefits, opposition from various groups Seize the opportunity: Use external factors to build momentum (WTO, EU accession, improving the DB indicators etc)
15 Implementation Challenges During the Reform Process Legal and institutional reforms are complex and time consuming, handholding is often required throughout the process Vested interests of various stakeholders requires careful planning and management
16 Implementation Challenges After the Reform Enactment of a law is merely a beginning, adequate implementation determines the impact Capacity building for financial sector, private sector and the legal community is critical so that the laws do not remain in the books Monitoring and evaluation
