Secured Transactions: Debtors’ Names Podcast

This podcast explains how a secured creditor decides what debtor name it should use on a financing statement when perfecting its security interest. This topic primarily requires a careful reading of UCC § 9-503, § 9-506, and a basic understanding of how a secured party attaches its security interest in the first place. At the conclusion of this podcast you should be able to (1) identify the correct name to use for a debtor on a financing statement; and (2) describe when a secured creditor might want to make multiple filings.
