An example of when competing interests in personal property may arise is when someone owes a debt to multiple lenders and both lenders which to claim an asset of the debtors to recover the debt. If there are two or more competing interests, an interest in registered on the PPSR will take priority over an unregistered one when multiple interests have been registered on the PPSR.
