B. This article applies to the filing of a financing statement under subsection A of this section and, as appropriate, to compliance that is equivalent to filing a financing statement under section 47-9311, subsection B, but the filing or compliance is not of itself a factor in determining whether the collateral secures an obligation. If it is determined for another reason that the collateral secures an obligation, a security interest held by the consignor, lessor, bailor, licensor, owner or buyer that attaches to the collateral is perfected by the filing or compliance.
