One of the fundamental rules in legislation is that ignorance of the law is no excuse, as it is assumed that everyone is aware of all laws and regulations governing human activities. This book is dedicated to students in the College of Administrative, Banking, and Business Sciences across all specializations (Accounting, Public Administration, Administrative Sciences, Financial and Banking Sciences, Marketing, Tourism, etc.). We have been keen to make this a distinguished book for these students, encompassing all the necessary legal matters related to their specialization. This includes the basic principles of commercial law, business activities, merchants, commercial books, commercial registries, protecting a business from unfair competition, safeguarding trade secrets, and commercial contracts. The book also provides comprehensive information on the Jordanian Companies Law, including types of companies, their characteristics, and provisions, as well as other relevant matters beneficial for students in these fields. We have briefly covered special provisions for commercial papers (bills of exchange, checks, and promissory notes) to enable students to understand their regulations and draft them correctly. Additionally, we have provided a quick overview of essential laws for management students, such as banking operations and their provisions, including bank accounts, financial and documentary credits, safe deposit box rentals, and discounting of commercial papers. We also address important aspects of commercial and industrial intellectual property laws, such as trade names, trademarks, geographical indications, patents, industrial designs and models, and integrated circuit designs. The book also touches upon laws of special importance to management students in the field of investment, as well as laws related to securities—their concept, types, and the provisions of the Securities Commission, the Securities Depository Center, the financial market (stock exchange), insurance, and banks, in addition to an introduction to the commercial bankruptcy system and its key provisions. All these laws are presented in an easy and accessible manner, without delving into minor details that require extensive reading. We have also ensured that the book includes the latest legal information based on the most recent laws and amendments issued in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. Furthermore, we have included a complete section on business ethics, discussing the concept of ethics, its sources, types, its relationship with other social frameworks, its importance, features of ethics in different economic systems, and some of the most significant challenges facing business ethics. Finally, we examine some professions and activities related to business, such as public service, business administration, accounting, and banking, to shed light on the recognized ethics in those fields and activities.
