Real Securities for Credit on Movable Property in the Second Polish Republic in Light of the Views of Professor Jan Gwiazdomorski

Summary/Abstract: This article addresses the legal instruments for securing claims on movable assets in the Second Polish Republic, presented against the background of Professor Jan Gwiazdomorski's scholarship. It traces the origins of the demand for the development of legal forms of security over movable property, aimed at strengthening entrepreneurs' credit capacity and permitting them to utilise their encumbered assets. It explores both the notion and the list of security rights, such as transfer of ownership for security purposes, retention of title, and pledge rights, while assessing the prerequisites and admissibility of their establishment within the framework of the legislations of the former partitioning powers. The article also considers the introduction of modern non-possessory registered pledges on timber, agricultural products, motor vehicles, and machinery and equipment. Finally, it points to the influence of Professor Gwiazdomorski's legal thought on the codification projects in the field of property law.
