The statutory test for uncommercial transactions under s 588FB(1) does not require that the transaction be so unreasonable that no reasonable person would enter into it; the word 'may' in 'it may be expected' is weaker than 'must' or 'would', and normal commercial practice is relevant though not decisive. A family relationship and track record of financial assistance are relevant but insufficient to outweigh a gross imbalance of legally defined and enforceable benefits and burdens where the impugned transaction contains no commitment to future advances.
