Why watch News Pty Limited for litigation

  • Early warning of unpaid debts: a creditor's application to wind a company up is filed in court, often before any other public sign.
  • Knowing who you deal with: suppliers, customers, landlords and lenders learn if a company they rely on sues or is sued.
  • Due diligence: investors and buyers see new claims, class actions and regulator cases, including during a deal.
  • Regulator action: cases brought by ASIC, the ACCC or the tax office can point to compliance problems.
  • Your own group: claims are often filed against a subsidiary or trustee company, so watching each entity means none reaches you late.
