School of Law

The Centre for Business Law and Practice fosters study in all areas of business law and practice, a field consisting of the legal rules that regulate any form of business activity.

We seek to promote all forms of research including doctrinal, theoretical (including socio-legal), comparative and applied (including empirical) research.

We also work to develop contacts between the academic world and the worlds of business and legal practice in order to enhance mutual understanding and awareness.

Disseminating knowledge

We disseminate the results of our work by publishing monographs, chapters in books, articles and pamphlets as well as by holding seminars with both in-house and outside speakers.

Our staff members have acted as consultants and advisers to the International Monetary Fund, law firms, accounting bodies, national law reform bodies and government departments in various countries.
