A pressing problem often facing commercial practitioners is how to determine the principle which would dictate when a proprietary claim is available and when it is not. This book explains the nature and structure of key interests in property in commercial transactions and analyses the incidence of proprietary claims available to holders of different interests in assets. The book starts by identifying the structure of those interests which the author terms "lesser proprietary interests", comprising security interests and interests based on retention of title in contracts of sale of goods, hire-purchase agreements, and leases, thereby contributing to the understanding of concepts which are traditionally used to explain this area of law such as bailment and fiduciary relationship. Using this framework, the book examines the circumstances in which the interests are lost and the extent to which proprietary claims can be asserted in assets that derive from the original subject matter, that is proceeds, products and income, as well as in accretions. It examines these claims at three levels: first, as a matter of default rules in the absence of misappropriation of the original subject matter; secondly, as a matter of contract, considering the limits of contractual freedom; and thirdly, in circumstances in which the original subject matter has been misappropriated. This book is the first to approach the topic of tracing and derived assets in commercial transactions on a principled basis. It subjects an area of little authority and general academic comment to rigorous and detailed analysis. It contains treatment of the relevant case law and discussion of points that have yet to come up in litigation in England and abroad. By way of comparison, it considers salient aspects of the relevant rules under Article 9 of the US Uniform Commercial Code. The book is timely in light of the current debate on the shape of the law reform of secured transactions in England and elsewhere.

Freedom of contract is a great strength of English law: indeed it is a key reason why English law is often the law of choice. But the terms of commercial contracts often restrict freedom of action. This book considers such terms. Leading commentators take stock of recent developments such as increased reliance on good faith/discretion and the rise of smart contracts. Insodoing, they make original contributions to ongoing debates concerning the limits to parties’ freedom of contract. This important subject will interest drafters of commercial contracts keen to ensure that contracts are clear and enforceable; litigators disputing the meaning, scope and validity of terms; and academics interested in the purpose and nature of the exercises involved.

The question explored in this book is how contracts can manage uncertainties. Commercial parties face uncertainties on a regular basis. Market fluctuations, new laws and regulations, pandemics, rapid technology advancements, and geopolitical tensions are all examples of events whose nature cannot be easily foreseen or captured by the contractual parties’ expectations. One possible way of addressing the uncertainty generated by such risks and events is through reliance on established contractual doctrines, such as variation or frustration. Under English law, these doctrines are traditionally limited. Another, and typically preferable, method is for contract drafters to include clauses that modify, suspend, or terminate the obligations or liabilities of one (or both) of the parties, or clauses that at least open up the options for renegotiation. Examples include material adverse change (or effect) clauses, hardship clauses, performance clauses, termination or suspension clauses, remedies clauses, and variation clauses.Such clauses raise a range of issues concerning their interpretation, effect and enforceability; the consequences that follow when the clauses do not work as planned; the consequences of allocating contractual discretion to a party to determine the existence of the relevant risk or event; and the extent to which the existence of specific clauses changes the options available to the parties beyond what general contract law principles offer.The book advances the understanding of how the law deals with the unexpected and is an essential read for academics, students, and practitioners, including contract drafters, legal advisors, and litigation lawyers.
