International & Cross-Border Capabilities (Singapore & South East Asian Firms) - Singapore
What the Team is Known For
The law firm provides clients with cross-border support across a full suite of matters. The team's transactional caseload sees it advise on inbound investment into Singapore and South-East Asia, and the firm is particularly adept at guiding Chinese investors with interests in the region. The firm's capital markets experts are held in high regard for their handling of IPOs of overseas corporations, and the firm's banking and finance team sits at the top of the domestic market. Cross-border dispute resolution is another clear strength of the firm, with practitioners often called upon to coordinate contentious proceedings that are multi-jurisdictional in scope, and the firm has a particularly excellent reputation in international arbitration.
WongPartnership enjoys a reputation as one of Singapore's elite independent practices. The law firm's Singapore headquarters is supported by a team based in Shanghai and has close links to firms in the Middle East thanks to its membership of the regional network WPG. Throughout South-East Asia, the team also maintains connections to local firms to efficiently advise its client base made up of homegrown entities and international players with interests in ASEAN.
