31 CFR Part 357

Action: Determination of substantially identical state statute.

A number of states have recently enacted laws adopting Revised Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code--Secured Transactions (“Revised Article 9”). Treasury is confirming that for states for which it has previously published a determination that their statutes were “substantially identical” to the uniform version of Revised Article 8 for purpose of interpreting the rules in 31 CFR Part 357, Subpart B (the “TRADES regulations”), such determination is not affected by a State's adoption of amendments in Revised Article 9. Treasury has also reviewed Rhode Island's enactment of Revised Article 8 and has determined that it is “ substantially identical” to the uniform version of Revised Article 8 for purpose of the TRADES regulations.
