As a reputable business hub and world-leading financial centre, Singapore has been seeing the rise of a number of quality smaller law firms that are punching well above their weight in terms of work handled and services delivered.

To highlight these upcoming firms, the January/February 2024 issue of ALB is spotlighting a list of Firms to Watch for Singapore. These firms are small but are already creating a buzz, and are either challenging, or have the potential to challenge, much larger law firms for their share of the work.

How Does India’s New Law Fit into the Global Data Privacy Landscape? [Brought to you by Epiq]
Changes to India data privacy laws have been a long time coming. A 2017 Supreme Court decision sparked legislative overhaul when concluding that privacy is a fundamental right. A bill was introduced soon thereafter leading to years of review, multiple versions, and debate. In August, India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act of 2023 (DPDPA) received presidential assent. The law was modeled after the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). It was originally poised to be stricter than the GDPR but that did not come into fruition, as the final version of the law was scaled back.
