A “floating lien” ensures that there is a security interest provided through the implementation of a security agreement in case of proceeds (Clarkson, Miller & Cross, 2016). A “floating lien” also ensures that there is a security interest provided through the implementation of a security agreement in case of after-acquired property. There can also be the utility of a “floating lien” actualized in case of collateral subject. This is because there can be a secured part wanting future advance of collateral subject.
