The Corporations Act (2001)

The Corporations Act sets out the laws dealing with companies in Australia at federal and state level, as well as some other business entities such as partnerships and managed investment schemes.

The Act regulates the formation and operation of companies, duties of officers, takeovers and fundraising. Any business operating in Australia as a company is bound by this legislation.
