Meetings; Advisory Committee on
Private International Law Study
U.S. Department of State Advisory
Committee on Private International Law
Study will be holding a public meeting
on the United Nations Commission on
International Trade Law (UNCITRAL)
Draft Legislative Guide on Secured
Transactions and its treatment of
security rights in intellectual property
(IP).
The Department of State Advisory
Committee on Private International Law
(ACPIL) will be holding a public
meeting to discuss the treatment of IPsecured financing practices in the
UNCITRAL Draft Legislative Guide on
Secured Transactions (Guide). At the
40th Session of the UNCITRAL, the
Commission adopted a legislative guide
on secured transactions, including
recommendations dealing with the
scope of the Guide as it relates to IP law
and secured financing, as well as the
inclusion in the commentary to the
Guide of explanatory statements on the
treatment of IP as secured financing.
The Commission also approved a new
work project on IP law matters as they
relate to secured financing law. A first
session for that work project was held
in New York in May. A second session
of that work project is scheduled for
October 20–24 in Vienna. The ACPIL
will use this public meeting to continue
to exchange thoughts on the
relationship between secured finance
and IP and how this matter should be
addressed in the new draft IP annex to
the Guide. The report of the first session
of the working group and the papers
prepared by the Secretariat on this
matter can be obtained at https://
