Conference on the “Cape Town Convention on International Interests in Mobile Equipment”, Montreal, 30 April 2019

On April 30, 2019, the Université de Montréal, in collaboration with the Department of Justice Canada, organises a conference on the topic of the “Unidroit Convention on International Interests in Mobile Equipment”. The conference will cover the Aircraft Protocol, which is in force with respect to Canada, as well as the draft MAC Protocol dealing with the asset-based financing of agricultural, mining and construction equipment.  The aim of the conference is to share experience and to foster discussions on the application of the Convention in the Canadian legal system.  What are the challenges?  What are the benefits to users?  Is the draft MAC Protocol relevant to Canada?

The full program will be available shortly on the Université de Montréal website. For further information and registration see here.
