UNCITRAL legislative guide on secured transactions : supplement on security rights in intellectual property

"The overall objective of the UNCITRAL Legislative Guide on Secured Transactions (the Guide) is to promote low-cost credit by enhancing the availability of secured credit (see recommendation 1, subpara. (a)). In line with this objective, the Supplement on Security Rights in Intellectual Property (the Supplement) is intended to make credit more available and at a lower cost to intellectual property owners and other intellectual property rights holders, thus enhancing the value of intellectual property rights as security for credit. The Supplement, however, seeks to achieve that objective without interfering with fundamental policies of law relating to intellectual property ... by: (a) explaining how the recommendations of the Guide would apply in an intellectual property context; and (b) making, in a small number of cases, asset-specific recommendations with respect to security rights in intellectual property."--Page 1
