Corporations law or corporate law is the field of law concerning the creation and regulation of corporations and other business organizations. A corporation is a legal entity that is legally treated, in certain instances, as a person; the corporation can own property, execute contracts, sue, and be sued. In British practice, corporate law is more often called company law.
Corporate law also includes the law governing the relationships among various constituents of a corporation such as shareholders, directors and management.
