CBFL Symposium: Developments in Secured Transactions Law
Description
The law relating to personal property security is increasingly receiving the attention of legislators worldwide as a means towards financial inclusion and economic growth. Many countries have either enacted new secured transactions legislation or are considering doing so. This symposium will explore developments in secured transactions law in Brunei Darussalam, Malaysia and Singapore, three neighbouring countries which have close economic ties and share a common legal tradition based on the law of England. Secured transactions law in each of these countries is at a different stage of development. Brunei Darussalam enacted a comprehensive reform statute, the Secured Transactions Act in 2016. Malaysia is planning to introduce a secured transactions legal framework relating to security interests in movable property which is expected to be tabled in Parliament in 2024. Secured transactions law in Singapore remains close to the English law in this area, and there has been little discussion of reform, the thinking being that the law works well enough.
