Amended

Last amended by an amending law of 2012.

(1)

This section has effect with respect to the application by an approved clearing house, or a recognised clearing house, of property provided as market collateral (called in this section the property).

(2)

The property may be applied in accordance with the business rules or default rules of the approved clearing house or recognised clearing house, so far as it is necessary for it to be so applied, despite —

(a)

any prior equitable interest or right, or any right or remedy arising from a breach of fiduciary duty, unless the approved clearing house or recognised clearing house had actual notice of the interest, right or breach of duty (other than any interest or right arising from the situation referred to in paragraph (b)) (as the case may be) at the time the property was provided as market collateral; or

(b)

that the property is deposited by the approved clearing house or recognised clearing house in a trust account held for the benefit of a participant.

(3)

No right or remedy arising subsequent to the provision of the property as market collateral may be enforced to prevent, or interfere with, the application of the property by the approved clearing house or recognised clearing house in accordance with its business rules or default rules.

(4)

Where an approved clearing house, or a recognised clearing house, has power under this section to apply the property despite an interest, a right or a remedy, a person to whom the approved clearing house or recognised clearing house disposes of the property in accordance with its business rules or default rules takes free from that interest, right or remedy.
