The Account Control Agreement Collateral is a crucial document in Australian secured financing arrangements, used when a borrower pledges its deposit accounts as collateral for a loan or other financial obligation. This agreement is particularly important under the Personal Property Securities Act 2009 (Cth) as it helps establish "control" over the financial asset, which can provide the secured party with a higher priority security interest. The document is typically used in conjunction with broader security arrangements and sets out the specific mechanisms by which the secured party can exercise control over the account, the bank's obligations to comply with the secured party's instructions, and the account holder's permitted activities. It includes detailed provisions for account operation, events of default, and the rights and obligations of all parties involved.
