Allen & Overy leads the field in ASEAN with a reputation underpinned by more than

two decades experience in the region. We have been involved in pioneering transactions

for many years and have a sophisticated understanding of the vastly different

geographies, cultures and legal environments of the 10 member states within ASEAN.

With more than 130 lawyers in situ, we are well placed to help clients assess risk as

well as take advantage of opportunity right across the region, whether that be in

Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam and Indonesia

**

_{(where we have our own local law}

capability) or countries such as Malaysia, the Philippines, Laos, Cambodia, Brunei

and Myanmar, where we also have extensive experience.

We invest heavily in ensuring our teams and our systems all interconnect – this is

particularly important in emerging markets where identifying risk is sometimes as

much of an art as a science, and where experience alongside market insight is critical.

Awarded ‘Best International Strategy’ by FT Asia-Pacific Innovative Lawyers for

“combining and developing local and international capability in the ASEAN region to win

top mandates in emerging economies.”
