The MLST was drafted to aid both developed and developing countries in adopting modern secured transactions laws.

During the colloquium, Bill spoke about new laws concerning digital assets in Singapore, the United Kingdom and the United States. Richard addressed trade finance and a proposed new instrument known as a negotiable cargo document, and urged future work by UNCITRAL to encourage cross-border trade finance.
