BULAW5915 Corporate Law
Although the number of corporations is not that large compared to other types of businesses such as partnerships and sole traders, their economic impact is enormous, both in Australia and world-wide. The legal structures and rules they must observe are broad and comprehensive, and should be understood by anyone wishing to become a professional accountant or to be involved more generally in business. This course explores the Australian legal framework for corporations, focusing in particular on their governance, management, operations, termination and fundraising, also raising questions about the effectiveness of the law and the impact of pending or likely changes.
