Unit rationale, description and aim

Banking and Finance Law examines current banking and finance regulation in Australia.

The units introduces students to the basic principles of banking and finance law, particularly as they relate to the banking and financial markets in Australia. The role of national regulators in maintaining and promoting a safe and secure banking industry will also be examined.
