Block transfer This is where a group of employees elect to transfer funds from a legacy pension into their new pension scheme, often prompted by their employer, adviser or new provider.
When a restaurant owner sells all of their kitchen equipment to another restaurant owner, that would be considered a bulk sale. If a software company sells their patent rights to another company, that would also be a bulk sale.
While most states have repealed their bulk sales statutes, in some states across the U.S., such as California, Delaware, Illinois, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, the practice of bulk sales compliance remains alive and well.
At least twelve days before the closing date, buyers must file the Bulk Sales Notice with the associated County Recorder in which the assets are located and, if different, the Recorder with the county in which the Seller lives.
If the Buyer fails to comply with these terms, the sale proceeds as usual, but they assume responsibility for liability payments equal to the difference between the creditor's owed debts and the amount the creditor may have obtained if the Buyer complied with California Bulk Sale Law.
