Redmond's Corporations and Financial Markets Law 8th Edition

Redmond’s Corporations and Financial Markets Law is a highly respected work in Australian legal scholarship and is now in its eighth edition. It is primarily designed as an academic text for tertiary courses on corporate law and financial market regulation. The twin concerns of the book are the core principles of corporations law and the advanced treatment of share capital transactions, corporate fundraising, financial market regulation and takeovers.

This edition is authored by Fady Aoun, Emma Armson, Olivia Dixon and Marina Nehme. The authors acknowledge the considerable contribution of Emeritus Professor Paul Redmond since the first edition of the book was published in 1988. They share his belief that the study of the law governing corporations and financial markets involves not only close attention to detailed statute, case law and administrative and market regulation but also to underlying values, policies and theories, and the contexts in which law and regulation operate.

Redmond intersperses the authors’ text with primary material, drawn principally from judicial decisions, to facilitate an in-depth understanding of the principles and operation of corporations and financial markets law. This eighth edition has been thoroughly revised, incorporating major legislative, judicial and regulatory developments since the last edition.
