Document background
This Non-Disclosure Agreement Business Acquisition template is specifically designed for use in Australian business transactions where parties are exploring potential business acquisition opportunities. It is typically used at the initial stages of acquisition discussions, before detailed due diligence begins, and serves to protect sensitive business information that needs to be shared for evaluation purposes. The document complies with Australian legal requirements, including relevant provisions of the Corporations Act 2001, Competition and Consumer Act 2010, and common law principles relating to confidential information. It is essential for both potential buyers and sellers in any business acquisition process, providing legal protection for commercially sensitive information, trade secrets, customer data, financial information, and other confidential business details that may be disclosed during preliminary discussions and due diligence.
