This book centres on the discussion of intellectual property law in Singapore. The chapters are categorised into six Parts: Introduction; Copyright; Patents, Innovation and Inventions; Designs; Trade Marks, Passing Off and Unfair Competition; and Confidential Information. Each Part is written with the objective that it may be studied on its own. However, as there may be overlapping rights between the categories, cross-referencing between Parts and chapters is necessary. Singapore’s intellectual property law, like that in many other countries, is intricately bound to a larger set of international legal norms and standards. Therefore, the study of this branch of the law is not complete without consideration of the historical perspectives as well as the influences of international treaties and conventions in the different categories of intellectual property.

Data Protection in the Practical Context – Strategies and Techniques provides a detailed study of the law, practice and policy of personal data protection law in Singapore. As the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) that was adopted in April 2016 included provisions implementing a formidable extended jurisdictional reach, this book also provides practical coverage of the GDPR and gives clarity to the key provisions. Including an extensive exposition on Big Data and the Internet of Things and their inter-relationship with cybersecurity, this book is an essential tool for anyone who has to deal with personal data protection matters, ranging from the practitioner, to the in-house counsel and all businesses.

Information and Communications Technology Law in Singapore is the first and only textbook to bring together a variety of topics on the law regulating the use of infocomm technology (“ICT”). The authors provide a comprehensive account of local jurisprudence in relation to the subject and also delve into a comparative study of the laws in other jurisdictions in areas where domestic law is still in its infancy. This work will provide the reader with a deep understanding of the domestic and global trends in the development of online regulations, the domain name regime, e-commerce and computer crime laws as well as laws concerning data protection and privacy interests.

This second edition of Corporate Law incorporates the many changes recommended by the Companies Act Working Group (“CAWG”) in May 2019. Some of them were introduced by the Companies, Business Trusts and Other Bodies (Miscellaneous Amendments) Act 2023 (Act 17 of 2023). Many of these involved the digital medium, which the COVID-19 pandemic showed that businesses required, in terms of notices, meetings, voting and communication generally. Going forward, the CAWG recognised that the Companies Act 1967 should remain as technologically neutral as possible. Continuing with the theme in the first edition, we agree that legislation should, as far as possible, permit innovation and development through changes to the corporate constitution. Even if most of the Act’s provisions are mandatory as the CAWG observed, the Act is not exhaustive of how businesses can be structured. This is perhaps seen most clearly in the new forms of fundraising that have arisen outside the regulated use of shares and debentures. The courts have led the way in recognising digital assets as forms of personal property, giving investors confidence to invest in them.
Through extensive case law analysis, this book offers invaluable insights into the changing landscape of corporate law in Singapore. It discusses judicial precedents which have significantly contributed to the development of areas of corporate law in Singapore. Explored within the pages of this book are areas including, but not limited to (a) the extent of membership rights; (b) veil piercing; (c) the permissibility of boards in approving conflict transactions carried out by their directors; (d) “core” fiduciary duties; (e) shareholder oppression in rights issues and generally in relation to corporate wrongs; (f) the no‑reflective loss principle; (g) capital maintenance and share repurchases; (h) floating charges and charge registration; and (i) liquidation generally and in the context of the restructuring of business trusts and partnerships.

The Singapore Mental Capacity Act 2008 (2020 Rev Ed) (“MCA”), enacted in 2008 and implemented in 2010, celebrates 15 years as a vital part of Singapore’s legal landscape. The MCA establishes a framework for making decisions on behalf of individuals aged 21 and above who lack mental capacity, safeguarding their welfare and interests. Although modelled after its English counterpart, the MCA has since evolved through local developments to address Singapore’s unique societal and legal context.
With Singapore navigating the challenges of an ageing population and working towards building a more inclusive society for individuals with mental disabilities, it is increasingly important for practitioners and policymakers to appreciate the MCA’s provisions and applications.
Jointly written by a team of legal experts drawing on their diverse experiences in the judiciary, practice, and academia, this book offers interested readers a practical and in-depth commentary on the MCA.

How have Singapore’s courts navigated the evolving and often contentious landscape of division of matrimonial assets upon divorce? Through an extensive empirical study of matrimonial cases in Singapore, this monograph offers fresh insights into the historical and jurisprudential development of the division of matrimonial assets in its courts. It examines how legal reforms – from the Women’s Charter amendments in 1980 and 1996 to the “structured approach” introduced in ANJ v ANK (2015) – have influenced judicial practices in this area of Singapore family law. By drawing on comprehensive datasets on local matrimonial cases, it proposes a principled methodology for equitable asset division grounded in partnership law principles. Essential reading for family law judges and practitioners, policymakers, and social workers, this work is a key resource for stakeholders in the family law community in Singapore.
