1. GOAL to Organize the Global Legal ConfEx in Singapore in February next year, an Event
Managed by Events 4 Sure to Discuss Subjects under Litigation, Arbitration, Compliance,
Risk Management among others in Singapore and the World
SINGAPORE, June 23, 2015: Singapore’s Legal Services sector has transformed into an
economic instrument in itself and a key enabler for growth in many other sectors of
Singapore’s economy. The growth of legal services in Singapore has been at about 7 percent
per year over the past 6 years as compared with the GDP growth of about 5 percent per
year in the same period. As a result of a string of positive changes, the share of Asia-Pacific
region in the legal market is expected to grow
significantly in the coming years and this presents
tremendous opportunity for Singapore’s legal sector.
Singapore is well-positioned to become a legal hub. It
enjoys the reputation for having a business-friendly legal
system. Singapore’s exponential growth as a business
and financial center has seen a corresponding rise in
demand for top-tier legal representation. The
international profile of Singapore as a neutral center for
dispute resolution is growing fast as well. Singapore is
now firmly placed on the world map as the arbitration
focal point. Legal and business communities across Asia
are increasingly promoting this place as an ideal, one-stop venue for international

2. commercial arbitration. To add to it, the Singapore government has been liberalizing the
legal industry by opening it to higher foreign participation over the past few years. An
increasing number of international law firms have opened their offices here to support
multinational clients, many of these offices being their Asian headquarters, all leading to
the progress of the Legal sector in Singapore.
Global Outsourcing Association of Lawyers (GOAL) has been organizing global scale legal
events for the last several years in the United States, United Kingdom, Dubai, Singapore,
India amongst other locations. GOAL is coming up with the Global Legal ConfEx in
