Law.com - O'Melveny Opens in Singapore With White & Case Hire
Here is another example of mobility and the growing interest in Singapore. Mobility, as we have pointed out comes in many forms. We see two of them here: the move from firm to firm and the move from one jurisdiction to another. It will be interesting to see if Singapore can sustain its appeal over the long haul. Ultimately, India will have to relax its current restrictions on foreign law firms establishing there. Once that happens, the appeal of Singapore will no doubt diminish considerably as some firms will move quickly to establish there. We will then probably see another form of mobility, the mobility of capital and resources as firms transfer from Singapore to India.
