Singapore

Competitive tax rates, political stability and favorable import/export and real estate laws make Singapore an attractive destination for businesses looking to expand in the Pacific region. Since gaining independence from Malaysia in 1965, Singapore has become the third-wealthiest nation and one of the most globalized economies. It attracts corporations, entrepreneurs and ventures of all sizes, and provides one of the best labor forces across the globe.

Rated by World Bank as the #1 city in the world for ease of doing business, and known as the #1 country in Asia for quality of life, Singapore is a strategic business center for multinational businesses. Our new representative office in Singapore provides a platform for us to connect with clients and contacts in this vibrant economy and surrounding countries.

We’re pleased to be associated with local Singaporean firm Angeline Suparto Law Corporation (ASLC), which has a reputation for excellence spanning over two decades. ASLC can provide on-the-ground support for our clients doing business in Singapore and in the region.
