REGINA, Saskatchewan, March 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Information Services Corporation (TSX: ISC) (ISC or the Company) has been selected through a competitive global process to establish, build and operate the future International Registry for Mining, Agriculture and Construction (MAC) Equipment (the International Registry). Through a wholly owned subsidiary, ISC will serve as the Registrar of the International Registry for an initial five-year term, with extension options available.
The International Registry will create a secure, global platform to register interests in high-value equipment, improving access to financing and reducing legal risk. The MAC Protocol, as part of the Cape Town Convention, creates a clear international legal framework for registering security interests in high-value mining, agriculture and construction equipment. This improves lender confidence, lowers legal risk and supports wider access to secured financing, especially in developing markets where credit is often limited.
“This is a significant step in advancing access to secured finance for the mining, agriculture and construction sectors,” said Shawn Peters, President and CEO of ISC. “We are honoured to deliver a secure, efficient and reliable International Registry and look forward to collaborating with UNIDROIT and the MAC Working Group to advance the Protocol toward implementation.”
ISC will manage the International Registry through its Registry Operations and Technology Solutions business segments, leveraging its expertise in building secure, scalable systems globally.
