At its thirty-third session, in 2000, the Commission considered a report of the Secretary-General on possible future work in the area of secured credit law (A/CN.9/475). At that session, the Commission agreed that the subject of security interests was important and had been brought to the attention of the Commission at the right time, in particular in view of the close link between security interests and the work of the Commission on insolvency law, and requested the Secretariat to prepare a further report.1  \nAt its thirty-fourth session, in 2001, the Commission considered a further report of the Secretary-General (A/CN.9/496) . At that session, the Commission agreed that work on security interests should be undertaken in view of the beneficial economic impact of secured credit law and entrusted Working Group VI (Security Interests) with the task of developing an efficient legal regime for security interests in goods involved in a commercial activity, including inventory.2 The Commission also recommended that a colloquium be held in view of the need to consult practitioners and organizations with expertise in the field of secured credit law.3 An international colloquium on secured transactions was held in Vienna from 20 to 22 March 2002. Working Group VI considered the report of the colloquium at its first session, which was held in New York from 2 to 24 May 2002.  \nAt its thirty-fifth session, in 2002, the Commission confirmed that the mandate of the Working Group should be interpreted broadly to ensure an appropriately flexible work product, which should take the form of a legislative guide.4  \nWorking Group VI considered the first draft of the guide on secured transactions in May 2002. The work of the Working Group was developed through 12 one-week sessions,5 the final session taking place in February 2007. In addition to representatives of the 60 States members of the Commission, representatives of many other States and a number of international organizations, both governmental and non-governmental, participated actively in the preparatory work. Working Group VI closely collaborated with Working Group V (Insolvency) in order to ensure coordination of the treatment of security interests in insolvency with the UNCITRAL Legislative Guide on Insolvency Law.6 In addition, Working Group VI closely cooperated with the Permanent Bureau of the Hague Conference on Private International Law in the preparation of the chapter on conflict of laws. Moreover, Working Group VI coordinated with the International Institute on Private International Law (Unidroit) to avoid overlap with the Convention on International Interests  \n1Official Records of the General Assembly, Fifty-fifth Session, Supplement No. 17 (A/55/17), paras. 459 and 463.  \n2Ibid., Fifty-sixth Session, Supplement No. 17 and corrigendum (A/56/17 and Corr.3), paras. 351 and 358.  \n3Ibid., para. 359.  \n4Ibid., Fifty-seventh Session, Supplement No. 17 (A/57/17), paras. 202-204.  \n5The reports of the Working Group on its work during these 12 sessions are contained in documents A/CN. 9/512, A/CN. 9/531, A/CN. 9/532, A/CN. 9/543, A/CN. 9/549, A/CN. 9/570, A/CN. 9/574, A/CN. 9/588, A","cbCaioW0wmoyMzUx","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaioW0wmoyMzUx","pdf",2155177,568,"English","# Preface\n## Background and mandate\n## Colloquium and drafting process\n## Final negotiations and adoption\n## General Assembly resolution endorsement","[{\"question\":\"Which body prepared the UNCITRAL Legislative Guide on Secured Transactions?\",\"answer\":\"The guide was prepared by the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL), with key work undertaken by Working Group VI (Security Interests).\"},{\"question\":\"What was the purpose of the work assigned to Working Group VI?\",\"answer\":\"It was tasked with developing an efficient legal regime for security interests in goods involved in commercial activity, including inventory, and producing a legislative guide with appropriate flexibility.\"},{\"question\":\"How and when was the guide finalized and adopted?\",\"answer\":\"Final negotiations occurred during the 40th session of UNCITRAL in Vienna in two parts in 2007, and the text was adopted by consensus on 14 December 2007.
