Description

This program will explain and discuss the UCC underpinnings of the RPA market, including such issues as: the definition of "account" and how it has been expanded; the UCC provisions invalidating restrictions imposed by account debtors on transfer of accounts; rules on perfection and priority; and certain state law variations. We will also address the concept of "true sale" and what that means to both purchasers and sellers. We will also analyze how cross-border transactions intersect with this legal background.

We will also consider such concerns as due diligence, inspection of underlying documents, and the risk of fraud. The panel will discuss document provisions often used in this market, alternatives, and tips on negotiation.

Listen as our panel of experienced practitioners guides listeners on how to prepare, negotiate, and close transactions in this dynamic market segment. Our speakers will help parties better understand the complex legal questions that often arise in these transactions.
