The floating charge is vital to secured transactions in Scotland and plays a key role in access to finance and corporate insolvency. Bringing together leading commentators at the forefront of the topic, this book delivers wide-ranging coverage of the history, theory, practice and potential reform of the floating charge. They examine floating charges from diverse approaches including ‘black letter’, socio-legal, law and economics, and comparative perspectives.
The editors of this volume, who have already made significant contributions in this field have boldly stridden into it once more with their band of contributors, to pull us out of the morass of confusion. A great merit of the book is that different authors often approach the same or a related issue from a different perspective. Thus, reading the whole book is likely to be enriching for anyone with an interest in the area. -- Dr Craig Anderson * Juridical Review *

Floating Charges in Scotland is an excellent volume that will be an invaluable resource for anyone studying or researching this area of law. However, it is also a book that is essential reading for practitioners as, for the first time, it is possible to refer to one volume that discusses the complex legal issues that practitioners grapple with in relation floating charges. I would recommend this book to anyone who has an interest in the floating charge and all banking, commercial and insolvency practitioners in Scotland. -- Kirsty Maciver * Edinburgh Law Review *
