Compliance Item - Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) Filing

Compliance Item - UCC Filings May Encumber Existing & Future Assets

UCC filing serves as a legal notification that a lender or creditor submits to the Secretary of State to establish a security interest in relation to you, your business, or a specific asset. This filing signifies that there is an interest or lien imposed on the asset to secure financing or to assert a claim.


When lenders or potential creditors review your business UCC filings, they might come across tax liens, mechanic liens, lis pendens (pending lawsuits), judgments, or other security interests indicating outstanding debts.


Businesses that have obtained SBA or PPP loans commonly encounter a "Blanket UCC" filed against both the business owner personally and the entire business entity. This particular type of filing implies that all current and future assets are deemed to be encumbered by liens and therefore cannot be utilized as collateral for future loans until the Blanket Lien is lifted.


It is highly advisable to review your UCC filing prior to applying for any new business loans or funding programs to avoid being blindsided by previously unknown obligations.
