There is rightly a focus on India at the moment.  It is one of the fastest growing economies in the world and after many years of discussion there appears to be some progress on “liberalisation” – allowing foreign lawyers to carry on some form of legal work in India.  There is also much scepticism about whether this will really happen.  Given the business connections between Singapore and India, Singapore is already an important hub for Indian legal issues.  How will this be impacted by liberalisation and what are the opportunities for law firms in Singapore and broader Asia?
This session will be an “off the record” update on what is happening in India.
