4 Tips for Secured Parties
As all secured creditors know, maintaining perfection of their security interests under UCC Article 9 is essential to ensuring priority over other claimants. Unfortunately, there is a common event that can quickly eliminate the perfection of a security interest: a debtor name change. Article 9-507(c) of the UCC provides the secured party with a four- month window to amend a UCC filing if the debtor’s name changes.

This infographic provides 4 tips for secured parties when faced with possible debtor name changes.
