Secured Transactions Reform and its Impact on Access to Credit in Peru
Lima, Peru – November 25-26, 2014.
Hosted by: OAS Department of International Law, Government of Canada, National Council for Competitiveness (CNC) and the Ministry of Economy and Finance (MEF) of Peru
The OAS Secured Financing
Project provides support to Member States for secured transactions law
reform based on the OAS Model Law on Secured Transactions and the OAS
Model Registry Regulations, and other international secured transactions
instruments, in collaboration with other international organizations,
the private sector, and trade associations; and taking into account the
financial inclusion of women-owned MSMEs. In doing so, specific
activities may include the following:
Identify Member
States, local and international co-sponsors for reform, and other
international organizations actively engaged in secured transactions
reform to participate in the project;
Once a Member State
has expressed interest in the project, conduct in-the-field
assessments of the various aspects of that Member State’s secured
transactions regime to review the sufficiency of the legal framework
and lending practices to meet stakeholders’ financing needs. Such
assessments are conducted using a broad-based participatory process
in partnership with the government’s appointed OAS counterpart,
other officials and institutions in the public and private sectors,
along with a wide range of other stakeholders;
Prepare reports
regarding the sufficiency for reforms to meet stakeholders’
financing needs, based on current disparities between models for
reform and the current legal framework;
Design and organize
capacity-buildings workshops to garner support for the local and
regional implementation of secured transactions instruments;
Draft recommendations
for local and regional implementation of the OAS Model Law on
Secured Transactions, the OAS Model Registry Regulations and other
international secured transactions instruments, based on the
findings, best practices and successes of OAS Member States
participating in the project;
Provide preliminary
assistance to OAS Member States wishing to address any of the
aforementioned recommendations for local implementation;
Produce and
disseminate publications and best practices for resilient secured
transactions regimes.
(For specific examples of
these activities in actual practice, see “Events”.)
