Yong’s hire continues Withers’ push to increase its strength in the funds space in Asia. Last October, it hired a total of six new real estate and investment funds partners in Tokyo and Hong Kong from White & Case, Deloitte and others.

Yong advises private equity funds, sovereign wealth funds, family offices and corporate clients on a range of areas, from regulatory and licensing issues affecting fund managers to fund formation, as well as cross-border M&A and private equity investment transactions in the Asia-Pacific region, including India and China.
