IMF Bentham expands operations in Asia Pacific
Australia-based litigation funder, IMF Bentham has set up its first Asian office in Singapore, as the company expands its Asia-Pacific operations.
It would serve both the Singaporean and Hong Kong markets as both markets and the broader Asia-Pacific region represented significant growth opportunities for its business.
The new office in Singapore is expected to start operations in April.
It would be led by Tom Glasgow, a former senior litigator at Allen & Overy who previously operated in both Singapore and Hong Kong.
