Economic Governance and Market Regulation
Faculty research examines how law operates at the international, transnational, and domestic levels through public regulation, private ordering, and self-governance upon economic institutions and actors. UVic Law has established a rich tradition of scholarship in the legal regulation of business practices, debt, commercial, and employment relations in market economies. Faculty research also shows how taxation law influences economic transactions ranging from the simplest contract to the most complex corporate reorganization. The Faculty has internationally recognized expertise in international investment law and arbitration, intellectual property, employment and labour law, securities regulation, and European tax law.
