In particular, the company submits the data concerning: any amendments/reforms in secured transactions laws or regulations; any reform related to secured transactions and insolvency that is ongoing and is expected to be adopted in the long term; available legal mechanisms for securing a loan with movable property in Belarusian economy; debts and obligations; notification and collateral registry; priority of claims outside of insolvency/bankruptcy; priority rules within insolvency/bankruptcy proceedings; enforcement of security interests; transparency of the registration system of the security interest in Belarusian jurisdiction and others
