The Blocked Account Control Agreement (BACA) is a crucial security document used in Australian financing transactions where a lender requires control over a borrower's bank account as part of its security package. This agreement is commonly used in project financing, secured lending, and structured finance transactions, particularly where cash flow control is essential for risk management. The document complies with Australian banking and securities laws, particularly the Personal Property Securities Act 2009 (Cth), and establishes the mechanisms for account control, operating procedures, and the respective rights and obligations of the account holder, secured party, and account bank. It is typically implemented alongside other security documents and is essential for perfecting security interests in deposit accounts under Australian law.
