There is currently no practice to comment on.

REFORM

29. Please summarise any reform proposals and state whether they are likely to come into force and, if so, when. For example, what structuring trends do you foresee and will they be driven mainly by regulatory changes, risk management, new credit rating methodology, economic necessity, or other factors?

There is a government proposal for the regulation of securitisation (see Question 2). The proposal covers both true sale and synthetic securitisation. It defines in what form an SPV can operate. It further contains regulations on the securities issued by the SPV and provides for special rules relating to the insolvency and liquidation of the SPV.

The new Civil Code would introduce changes in the law relating to assignment. These changes were prepared to provide a more solid basis for securitisation transactions.
