Dayrit, Melissa; Holden, Paul; Pekmezovic, Alma; Reid, Terry | September 2014
Abstract
The Pacific region has undergone one of the most extensive secured transactions reforms anywhere in the world.
Although the reforms are relatively recent, initial results indicate that they will allow more borrowing—on better

This publication was produced by the Pacific PrivateSector Development Initiative, a regional technical
assistance facility cofi nanced by the Asian Development Bank, the Government of Australia, and the
New Zealand Government
