The term corporate law refers to the laws relating to corporations and their business activities in general. In the New Zealand context this includes the life-cycle of a corporation under the Companies Act 1993 and the effect of other regulatory frameworks such as the Receiverships Act 1993, the Takeovers Act 1993 and the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013. Corporate Law in New Zealand is a modern, fresh analysis of corporate law in New Zealand that places New Zealand corporations in their historical, current and international context. Key chapters include the impact of the theory of the company on New Zealand corporate law, the nature of corporate enterprise in New Zealand, Maori/iwi companies, directors duties, shareholders rights, corporate financing, corporate insolvency, relevant financial markets law, and takeovers, amalgamations and arrangements. Selected content is drawn from the Company and Securities Law in New Zealand treatise and has been updated, reworked and significantly expanded to embrace developments in company and corporate law.

Who enjoys statutory preferred creditor status? What justifications exist for jurisdictions to maintain statutes that favour 'priority' creditors over other creditors and contributories? This book examines preferential debts derived from specific legislative provisions applying to corporate insolvency. In exploring the concept of preferential treatment, Statutory Priorities in Corporate Insolvency Law includes chapters that provide a doctrinal, theoretical and historical analysis of who enjoys preferred creditor status. As well as examining the traditional major categories of priorities, this work also identifies potential new categories for priority status such as environmental clean-up costs, international creditors, tort claimants and consumers among other non-consensual creditors. While the study focuses on Australian corporate insolvency law, where appropriate, comparisons are made with other common law jurisdictions, particularly the UK, Canada, New Zealand and the US.

Of all the areas of company law, directors' powers and duties is among the least accessible from the statute (i.e. Companies Act 1993). Behind the statute, is a long and very complex history of equitable and common law case law, most of which remains applicable in New Zealand. This book also contains short summaries of leading cases which is very useful both for students and practitioners.
