International Business Transactions - LAW896

This unit examines the making, regulating and breaking of deals in the international business community. The unit will canvas the different legal forms of agreements (eg, direct foreign investment, international joint ventures); laws that influence the conduct of business internationally (eg, anti-trust laws, international financial regulation, international bankruptcy, international taxation laws); and the mechanisms available when disputes arise (eg, international arbitration, foreign litigation in domestic courts). Students will develop an understanding of key legal principles underpinning international business transactions from an international law perspective as well as in relation to selected jurisdictions.
