With strong roots in the USA, Milbank's Singapore team has developed an excellent reputation for its cross-border strength across a range of transactional areas. The Singapore office acts as a crucial centre for the firm's activity in ASEAN, forming part of an Asian network that includes teams stationed in Beijing, Hong Kong, Seoul and Tokyo. From Singapore, clients seeking guidance in relation to India and Indonesia are expertly advised by in-house specialists, and entities seeking support in other South-East Asian jurisdictions benefit from the close ties Milbank maintains to local practices throughout the region.
The Singapore team stands out for its projects, banking and M&A work. International lenders and sponsors routinely select the team to advise on important developments throughout South-East Asia, particularly coal-fired projects and other energy ventures. The law firm's corporate group also advises on a multitude of cross-border transactions spanning a broad range of industry sectors such as aviation, healthcare, and food and beverages.
