What is the meaning of Uniform Commercial Code (UCC)?

Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) is a compilation of laws relating to commercial contracts involving personal property. The code does not address real property. In addition, a few types of personal property are also excluded. While the UCC has been adopted by all 50 states, there are differences among the versions adopted in each state. Secured lenders tend to focus on UCC Article 2A covering leases, Article 8 covering securities, and Article 9 covering all other personal property collateral.
