CORPORATE & COMMERCIAL

Corporate finance law is not a fixed area of law. Holistically, it focuses on an important part of our economy and thus of our society. At its core is the financing of entrepreneurship and business, i.e., how a company can obtain funds to finance its operations. As a consequence, corporate finance law consists of the legal rules that structure such matters. It is thus not one single body of law, but rather it includes various other areas of law: general contract law, property law, company law and corporate insolvency law as well as more specialist regulatory law dealing with securities, takeovers and other similar issues.
