Abstract

From long time ago the shortage of finance in business practices was one of the striking problems for traders and thus there have always been endeavors to find a solution to it. One of the ways put forward was using the stocks stored in warehouses as security for loans. Taking advantage of a descriptive method, this paper describes field-warehousing as a means of raising cash funds and the regulations concerned with the aim of enhancing business deals and promoting the country’s economy. The result from this study was that despite its capacities and benefits as a method of raising cash funds, field-warehousing is ignored in our legal system because of lacking the basic requirements and this matter has deprived our trading society from its advantages. Obviously in order to pave the way for field-warehousing arrangements for raising cash funds, the government and the parliament should both have strong determination and efforts.
