A security financial collateral arrangement — to specialists, an “SFCA” — is, well, it’s not a title transfer financial collateral arrangement (“TTCA”), but rather one where collateral is transferred by way of possession only, where the receiver has a security interest and may even have legal title but down not have beneficial ownership of the asset in question ... buuuuuut if rehypothecation is allowed, may be able to sell it anyway. Confused? Don’t be. Well, do be, but don’t feel ashamed about it. All is explained in our article on the Financial Collateral Directive. And, if not in that one, in our section on cognitive dissonance.
