Faculty 2018 Brochure

Your clients are relying on you to protect their security interests. Are you prepared?

The Ontario Personal Property Security Act (PPSA) is complex and requires a sophisticated understanding in order to successfully navigate and maximize the benefit of its highly technical rules and requirements.

Back for its 19th year – OsgoodePD’s practical and intensive one-day PPSA program is designed to give you an in-depth understanding of what you need to know to properly navigate the various complexities of the PPSA to protect your client’s security interests. Highly experienced practitioners will take you through the PPSA and some common pitfalls, using practical examples and “hands-on” exercises to help you succeed when utilizing this complex legislation.

This course will cover:

• Overview of the PPSA – the “what”, “when” and “how” of attachment
• Principle elements of financing statements, acknowledgements and searches
• Differences in PPSA legislation in the common law provinces
• How to examine a PPSA response certificate
• Exceptions to the “first come, first served” priority rules
• Fundamental registration issues and relevant case law
• Key elements of the Securities Transfer Act and taking security in investment property
• Real property issues and the PPSA
