SUPPLEMENT: INDIA

ALB’s India Supplement takes a deep-dive into the current state of the Indian legal market, looking at the biggest players, the fastest up-and-comers and the most noteworthy individuals. We also interview senior in-house lawyers on how they perceive the legal services sector, and where they see it headed. Additionally, law firms will have the opportunity to place sponsored articles on various practice areas and other aspects of the Indian legal market. Please email amantha.chia@tr.com for sponsorship opportunities.

REPORT: VIETNAM

As Vietnam’s economic growth accelerates, this year is expecting to see increasingly large IPOs. Techcombank’s estimated $922 million IPO this summer could soon be eclipsed by Vingroup JSC’s residential property business that could raise as much as $2 billion. And this is of cours impacting legal work.

FEATURE: M&A

Tougher regulatory scrutiny and rising trade war concerns are hurting Asia’s M&A scene, with dealmaking in 2018 having the slowest start to the year in 2014. We look at what the bright spots are M&A, and how lawyers are helping their clients navigate obstacles.

FEATURE: COMPETITION LAW

With two cases in the Hong Kong’s competition law tribunal, several ongoing in-depth investigations, an increased budget, including a new designated fund for litigation proceedings in the tribunal, and a new senior leadership of the commission in place, competition law enforcement in Hong Kong is expected to be stepped up. We look at what this means for businesses.

SECTION: DISPUTES FOCUS

ALB’s Asia Disputes Focus section, looks at trends and developments in Asia’s dynamic disputes space, as well as updates on what’s happening internationally. To enquire about how you can be a part of this, please contact amantha.chia@tr.com.

FEATURE: ENERGY

While China has understandably been the focus of global attention when it comes to clean energy, energy markets all across Asia are keen to get ahead on the renewable race as well. We look at the scene in different countries.
