Floating charge
A mortgage, debenture or other security documentation, is likely to create charges over particular assets as security for borrowings or other indebtedness. There are essentially two types of charge, floating and fixed. A floating charge is appropriate to assets and material which is subject to change on a day to day basis, such as stock. Individual items move into and out of the charge as they are bought and sold in the ordinary course of events. The floating charge crystallises if there is a default or similar event. At that stage the floating charge is converted to a fixed charge over the assets which it covers at that time. A floating charge is not as effective as a fixed charge but is more flexible.
Floating law clause
A clause in a contract which permits one party to the contract to choose the applicable law, after a predetermined event has occurred. Such clauses have been criticized for lending themselves to evasion of the law.
Floodgates
It was feared by Cardozo, C.J. that to grant damages for economic loss (supra) would open the floodgates to "liability in an indeterminate amount for an indeterminate time, to an indeterminate class".
Florin
The name of a foreign coin. In all computations of customs, the florin of the southern states of Germany, shall be estimated at forty cents; the florin of the Austrian empire, and of the city of Augshurg, at forty-eight and one-half cents.
