The Legal Framework for Loan Collateral Recovery in Kenya

In Kenya, the process of loan collateral recovery is governed by robust legal frameworks designed to protect the rights of both lenders and borrowers. Key statutes include the Chattels Transfer Act (Cap 29) for movable property (like vehicles or equipment) and relevant provisions within the Land Act (No. 6 of 2012) and the Land Registration Act (No. 3 of 2012) for immovable property (land and buildings). Lenders must ensure their security interests are properly registered, often with bodies like the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics for certain types of assets or the Registrar of Lands. Following loan default, the terms of the security agreement and applicable laws dictate the procedure, which may involve issuing formal notices and, if necessary, obtaining court orders for repossession. Swipe Recoveries Experts Ltd meticulously navigates these legal requirements, including compliance with consumer protection laws where applicable, ensuring that all recovery actions are legally sound and professionally executed. We leverage our understanding of case law from the High Court of Kenya to ensure our methods are always current and defensible.
