§ 511. § 8—511.

  • Priority among security interests and entitlement holders (a) Except as otherwise provided in subsections (b) and (c) of this section, if a securities
    intermediary does not have sufficient interests in a particular financial asset to
    satisfy both its obligations to entitlement holders who have security entitlements
    to that financial asset and its obligation to a creditor of the securities intermediary
    who has a security interest in that financial asset, the claims of entitlement holders,
    other than the creditor, have priority over the claim of the creditor. (b) A claim of a creditor of a securities intermediary who has a security interest in
    a financial asset held by a securities intermediary has priority over claims of the
    securities intermediary’s entitlement holders who have security entitlements with
    respect to that financial asset if the creditor has control over the financial asset. (c) If a clearing corporation does not have sufficient financial assets to satisfy both
    its obligations to entitlement holders who have security entitlements with respect
    to a financial asset and its obligation to a creditor of the clearing corporation
    who has a security interest in that financial asset, the claim of the creditor has
    priority over the claims of entitlement holders. (Added 1995, No. 92 (Adj. Sess.), § 1, eff. Jan. 1, 1997.)
