Why you should ensure your assets are properly registered on the PPSR

It is important for businesses to manage their credit risk by ensuring they register their security interests for any goods they supply or lease on the PPSR. If you do not properly register your security interest and a debtor is placed into liquidation or bankruptcy, your position will be similar to that of an unsecured creditor, who rank behind secured creditors when payments are made or assets distributed.
