The independence of real right act is also a matter of value judgment. To enhance resource allocation efficiency and reduce transaction costs, the real right act should be independent. Regarding the transaction security, the abstraction principle can effectively lower transaction costs, and its function does not overlap with bona fide acquisition. If the malice of a subsequent transferee is defined as knowing or having reason to know the existence of validity defects in the prior transaction, the uncertainty in judging such defects would incline the subsequent transferee to refuse the transaction. In this scenario, while investigation costs would not arise, the cost of seeking similar transactions would emerge. Whether to recognize the abstraction principle affects transaction costs and resource allocation efficiency. The abstraction principle constitutes the general rule, with causality being the exception. Only in exceptional cases—such as when the prior transferor acted under a significant mistake and the subsequent transferee acquired the subject matter at an unreasonable price—should the abstraction principle be negated. In bilateral restitution relationship, negating the abstraction principle would increase costs such as the confirmation expenses borne by bankruptcy administrators or creditors. In trilateral restitution relationships, negating the abstraction principle would raise both transaction costs and restitution settlement costs. Many rules in China's civil law should be re-examined and adjusted based on a thoughtful consideration of the theory of real right act. |
