Purchase-money security interest (PMSI)

A PMSI in consumer goods is created when a seller or lender agrees to extend credit to a buyer for part or all of the purchase price of the goods in a sales transaction. PMSI in consumer goods is perfected automatically at the time it is created.

Effective Time Duration of Perfection

A financing statement is effective for five years from the date of filing. If a continuation statement is filed within 6 months prior to the expiration date, the effectiveness of the original statement is continued for another 5 years.

Buyers in the ordinary course of business

A person who buys "in the ordinary course of business" takes the goods free from any security interest created by the seller even if the security interest is perfected and the buyer knows of its existence.

Perfection without Filing

-Perfection by possession: when the collateral is transferred into the possession of the secured party. -Perfection by attachment: these security interests are automatically perfected at the time of their creation.

A creditor has two main concerns if the debtor defaults:

1. Can the debt be satisfied through the possession and usually sale of the collateral? 2. Will the creditor have priority over any other creditors or buyers who may have rights in the same collateral?

Three requirements must be met for a creditor to have an enforceable security interest:

1. Unless the creditor has possession of the collateral, there must be a written or authenticated security agreement that clearly describes the collateral subject to the security interest and is signed or authenticated by the debtor. 2. The secured party must give the debtor something of value. 3. The debtor must have rights in the collateral.

Common security interests that are perfected on attachment

1. purchase-money security interest in consumer goods 2. an assignment of a beneficial interest in a estate of a deceased person.

Once default has occurred and the secured party has obtained possession of the collateral, the secured party can:

1. retain the collateral in full or partial satisfaction of the debt 2. Sell, lease, license, or otherwise dispose of the collateral in any commercially reasonable manner and apply the proceeds toward satisfaction of the debt.

Floating Lien

Security Agreement
