Imperial Law corporate practice covers a broad range of transactional and advisory work on behalf of public and private companies, financial institutions, private equity and venture capital funds, boards, and individuals.

Incorporation and Activation of Corporate Structures

With the increased efficiency at ACRA (Accounting and Corporate Registration Authority), it has become much easier for entrepreneurs to start their businesses in Singapore. In addition, the simplification and standardisation of stamp fees mean there is little reason for businessmen not to incorporate and grow their ideas into real life businesses.

We complement these with the significant legal advisory services that we feel must accompany every exciting decision to start a new venture. We seek to balance the speed and energy of every new start up with tempered legal consideration.

We also assist clients with their offshore needs such as the acquisition and activation of offshore structures in jurisdictions like the British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Seychelles, Bermuda, Labuan and Anguilla — to name just a few.

Securities, Mergers and Acquisitions, Reconstruction Joint Ventures

As our clients continue to adapt their businesses to meet ever changing market conditions, we assist with advisory and documentary needs in the restructuring of their existing entities, acquisition of private companies, mergers of entities, divestments and various other capital market deals.

Transactional Documentation

Our experience includes assisting clients in preparing, organising and drafting various transactional documentation, from simple memorandums of understanding, employment contracts and term sheets, to complex investment agreements, sale and purchase agreements, licensing agreements, technology agreements, framework arrangements for the provision of products and services together with supporting maintenance and supply contracts, and various other co-operation arrangements.

We recently assisted a client in preparing transactional documents related to a large telecommunications deal in the Asia-Pacific region and in another project involving the development of land and infrastructure in the region.

Credit and Risk Management

We regularly assist clients in maintaining liquidity, managing bad debts, as well as recovering monies owed – efficiently using minimum resources for maximum gains.
