Draft Articles (Revision) -iii- I KTTFiODUCT I ON The purpose of this paper is to discuss and examine the factors restricting the establishment and expansion of merchant marine in developing countries. Long-term financing was essential for the development of merchant fleet,and that the security more readily avai­ lable was the vessel" itself5therefore there should be a need to ensure the best possible protection of the mort­ gagee. However,because the current situation in regard to maritime liens and mortgages is one of a disunified international regime,the interest of the mortgagee is not satisfactorily protected today. Thus it drew attention to the lack of appropriate national framework,which of made it impossible to register a ship in a developing country under conditions that would enable a lender to obtian a mortgage on a ship and to recover his money in the event of a default in repayments. Further,it also discuss the need of national or international legal pro­ visions relating to the securities given to banks and financial institutions when vessels are ordered and bought in shipyards or bought on the second hand market. The author noted that mi^ritime liens and mort­ gages were inextricably connected with each other and that,accordingly was essential that they be treated together. A maritime lien is defined as a type of privi­ leged security for preferred claims against a ship for -iv- services rendered to it or damage done by it,to be put into effect by legal processCi.e against the ship),which will make it possible to arrest and sell the vessel in order to satisfy the claim. A maritime lien is an incident of most maritime transactions. The underlying claim can be tortious or contractual in nature. Thus,a maritime lien exists as a result of collision or cargo damage and in some,but not a11,cases of personal injury. Suppliers of both goods and services normaly aquire a maritime lien. Seamen are given a lien for unpaid wages,and liens exist to secure a salvage award and unpaid general average. A maritime lien attaches automatically to a vessel whenever there arises in respect of that ship a claim which according to the applicable law,is secured by a maritime lien. Maritime liens are valid against all who have an interest in the ship and this validity opera­ tes without any need to register the lien. This means that,in general it is valid even against the person who takes the ship in good—faith without knowledge of the lien or the claim giving rise to it. Further,in princi­ ple mi^ritime liens take priority over other creditors of shipowner whether their claims are secured by registered mortgage or in other ways. On the other hand,shipping is a capital intensive industry and large sums of money were needed for the building,equipping and operation of ships. Thus,the availability of adequate financing possibilities for the creation and expansion of merchant fleets by developing countries has been another permanent concern for these countries. Therefore,in order to purchase -V- existing vessel or order the building of new vessel, particularly for the developing countries,it is necessary for finance to be freely available. To encourage the provisions of finance,a method has been developed in most national systems of assuring financiers that their loans are protected. Mortgages <!at common law!) and hypathegues (in civil law) are designed to provide security to the lender of money, i.e since shipping is a capital intensive industry and because the resources of ownership are 1imited,mortgages are intended to accelerate the pace expansion of the industry. One of the resources of raising capital for finance is the commercial banks credit. The commercial banks provide the bulk of finance for ship buyers. The loans are usually at medium term with a flactuating rate of interest and they are called term loans which by defi­ nition are business credits with maturity of more than one year and less

The decision is a useful reminder that a mortgagee will need to consider more than its own interests in such a situation.

Each of the regimes provides the maritime claimant or the liable person some special rights. It appears that the legal principles underlying maritime liens and limitation of liability are not related, however, they are interconnected in that both of them seek to strike a proper balance in the encouragement of shipping on the one hand and the effective prosecution of maritime claims on the other hand.
