How it was checked · 3 checks
- Rule re-applied. The Transferable rule (v1.0), re-applied to the stored facts, gives the same result as the Mastermind v3 run of 2026-09-26.
- Quote verified. The clause quoted for transferability appears verbatim in the cited section.
- Independent extractor. A heuristic extractor that does not see the model's reading also finds transferability: true.
Transferable
The obligation (other than a loan) must be transferable to institutional investors without any contractual, statutory or regulatory restriction; Rule 144A and Regulation S restrictions are disregarded, and consent requirements on loans are separate characteristics.
