Attachment and perfection of security interests
The PPSA sets out the rules relating to when a security interest will attach to personal property and how a secured party can perfect that interest. A security interest is only effective if it has attached to personal property. A security interest can be perfected by registration, possession and control. Only certain types of property can be perfected by control.
