RATIONALE
Corporate and Business Law is divided into eight
areas. The syllabus starts with an introduction to
the overall English legal system such as the court
system and sources of law. It then leads into the
area of the law of obligations including contract and
tort, which underpin business transactions
generally.
The syllabus then covers a range of specific legal
areas relating to various aspects of business of most
concern to finance professionals. These are the law
relating to employment and the law relating to
companies. These laws include the formation and
constitution of companies, the financing of
companies and types of capital, and the day-to-day
management, the administration and regulation of
companies and legal aspects of insolvency law.
The final section links back to all the previous areas.
This section deals with corporate fraudulent and
criminal behaviour.

APPROACH TO EXAMINING THE SYLLABUS
The syllabus is assessed by a two-hour paper-based
examination.
The examination consists of:
Section A
- 25 x 2 mark objective test questions 50%
o 20 x 1 mark objective test
questions 20%
-Section B
- 5 x 6 mark multi-task question 30%
100%.
All questions are compulsory.
NOTE ON CASE LAW
Candidates should support their answers on the
paper- based multi-task questions with analysis
referring to cases or examples. There is no need to
detail the facts of the case. Remember, it is the
point of law that the case establishes that is
important, although knowing the facts of cases can
be helpful as sometimes questions include scenarios
based on well-known cases. Further it is not
necessary to quote section numbers of Acts.
