The document summarizes recent changes to Singapore law regarding third-party funding of arbitration cases. Specifically, it notes that Singapore has abolished the torts of maintenance and champerty, now permitting third-party funding of international arbitration cases. However, third-party funders must meet requirements to principally be in the business of funding disputes and have a minimum paid-up capital or managed assets of $5 million. Additionally, lawyers can assist with referrals but not receive direct financial benefits. Overall, the changes are meant to maintain Singapore as a competitive seat for international arbitration by allowing practices, like third-party funding, that are common in other model arbitration jurisdictions.
