If I am conducting business outside Australia am I bound by the competition provisions in the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)?

• The Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth) will apply to conduct outside Australia if you are an Australian citizen or someone who ordinarily resides in Australia.
• A company that was incorporated in Australia or that conducts business in Australia needs to make sure that any conduct it engages in outside Australia complies with the legislation.
