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.

The third edition of Insurance Law in Singapore provides a much-needed update for practitioners, students and interested stakeholders in the insurance law process. The law of insurance in Singapore is primarily based on English law but there are now major differences between the laws of both jurisdictions in relation to insurance law. Since the publication of the second edition in 1997, the UK has introduced the Insurance Act 2015 (which has been described as the most significant reform to English insurance law since the Marine Insurance Act 1906), the Consumer Insurance (Disclosure and Representations) Act 2012 and the Third Parties (Rights Against Insurers) Act 2010. The changes brought about by these statutes and the differences in the treatment of similar issues in Singapore are discussed in this edition.
This title provides a comprehensive overview of the legislative ad precedential developments in the topics concerning every stage fo the insurance law process. These include the formation of insurance contracts, risk, loss, claims and third-party rights. In addition, motor insurance and related issues are explored in extensive detail.
