You have recently commenced a position as a graduate in a corporate advisory role. Your
division provides advice on corporate governance issues for many corporate clients,
comprising companies listed on the ASX, non-listed public companies, and large and small
proprietary companies. Your immediate superior has asked you to prepare a written
analysis of a recent company law case to circulate to a number of those clients in
accordance with the instructions below. Your organisation regularly provides case updates
to its clients as a marketing and information tool. Please read a decision of the Court of Appeal of New South Wales: Left Bank Investments
Pty Ltd v Ngunya Aboriginal Corporation [2020] NSWCA 114 (13 July 2020) (“Left Bank v
Ngunya”) and prepare a case analysis which answers the questions below, supported by
appropriate reasons and critical analysis.
FAQ: Which topics should be discussed in the Assignment?
A: You will need to read the Assignment instructions, and the relevant case very carefully but the issues relevant to the Assignment arise primarily from topics addressed in the week 5 lecture. You are expected to respond to several very specific questions about the assigned case. Marks will not be awarded for consideration of unrelated topics or issues.
