Defined in the UCC as: A person in whose favor a security interest is created or provided for under a security agreement, whether or not any obligation to be secured is outstanding.

A UCC-1 financing statement (an abbreviation for Uniform Commercial Code-1) is a legal form that a creditor files to give notice that it has or may have an interest in the personal property of a debtor (a person who owes a debt to the creditor as typically specified in the agreement creating the debt).

The secured party has 20 days to either terminate the filing or send a termination statement to the debtor that the debtor can then file. If this does not happen within the 20-day time frame, the debtor may file a UCC-3 termination statement.

UCC-1 Financing Statements are commonly referred to as simply UCC-1 filings. UCC-1 filings are used by lenders to announce their rights to collateral or liens on secured loans and are usually filed by lenders with your state's secretary of state office when a loan is first originated.

An assignee of a secured party can either become the secured party of record or it can be an assignee whose interest is not of record. In either case, the assignee is a secured party that is perfected by filing but who has not filed a financing statement.

A secured party of record with respect to a financing statement is a person whose name is provided as the name of the secured party or a representative of the secured party in an initial financing statement that has been filed.

The borrower or buyer is known as the debtor, and the lender or seller is known as the creditor, and more specifically the secured party. Two simple examples of secured transactions are: (1) a bank loaning a business money so it can buy inventory; and (2) a company selling a business equipment on credit.
