Corporations in North Carolina are primarily regulated under the North Carolina Business Corporation Act (NCBCA), which provides a comprehensive framework for corporate governance, shareholder rights, and corporate transactions. Under the NCBCA, corporations are required to file articles of incorporation with the North Carolina Secretary of State to establish their legal existence. These articles outline essential details about the corporation, such as its name, registered agent, purpose, and initial directors.

Directors have a fiduciary duty to act in the best interests of the corporation and its shareholders, while officers are responsible for managing the day-to-day operations of the company. Shareholders typically have the right to vote on significant corporate matters, such as mergers, acquisitions, and amendments to the corporation's articles of incorporation or bylaws. Moreover, North Carolina corporate law governs various corporate transactions, including mergers, acquisitions, and dissolutions, providing legal guidelines and procedures to ensure compliance with state regulations. Overall, North Carolina corporate law plays a crucial role in facilitating the formation and operation of businesses within the state while protecting the rights and interests of stakeholders.
