International law firm DAC Beachcroft is pleased to confirm that partner Andrew Robinson has been appointed as Location Head of its Singapore office for a three-year term, effective from 1 June 2026. Andrew takes over from partner Summer Montague and will lead the office as it continues to support clients across Singapore and the wider Asia-Pacific region.

Singapore is a key market for insurers and reinsurers, and an important hub for clients operating across Asia-Pacific and internationally. We have a talented team here with deep sector expertise, strong regional relationships and a clear focus on delivering excellent service for our clients.

"I look forward to working with colleagues in Singapore and across DACB’s international network as we continue to build on the office's momentum, support our clients' ambitions and strengthen our presence in this important market."

DACB's Senior Partner, Ben Daniels, commented, "Working alongside Summer and the wider team in Singapore over the last few years, Andrew has played a key role in growing our presence in this important jurisdiction and beyond. His commitment to the team, combined with his strong understanding of the region, makes him well placed to lead the our Singapore office through its next chapter.

"I would like to thank Summer for her leadership over the past few years and for the important contributions she has made to developing our presence and capabilities in the region."
