International & Cross-Border Capabilities (International Firms)

Ashurst's Singapore office is held in high regard for its cross-border capabilities, particularly in relation to the energy sector. Clients benefit from the law firm's strong sector and regional expertise, and specialists in Singapore are particularly adept at handling matters involving Indonesia, Brunei and the Philippines. Clients with multi-jurisdictional needs will also benefit from the close ties the team maintains with other Ashurst offices in Asia-Pacific.

Matters relating to the energy sphere are a focal point of the team's cross-border practice. The financing group is frequently engaged by international lenders, and M&A specialists are accustomed to advising on substantial multi-jurisdictional deals relating to infrastructure, mining and other energy projects. Adding to its transactional capabilities, the team is also an active player in international arbitration, with cross-border disputes regularly staffed with lawyers based across Ashurst's global network.

"The teams are well resourced to meet challenging demands and timelines. In addition, we have been impressed with Ashurst's strong global network for firms in niche jurisdictions."

"The Ashurst team is highly experienced not just in dealing with sophisticated matters in cross-border M&A, but also in proposing business-minded solutions and explaining them clearly."
