Singapore: DLA appoints new litigation and regulatory partner

DLA Piper has announced that Nathan (Nate) Bush has joined Litigation and Regulatory practice in Singapore as head of investigations for Asia and head of antitrust and competition in Asia.

Bush joins as the firm’s Singapore-based Asia head of investigations and Asia head of antitrust. A disputes specialist, Bush focuses his practice on investigations and regulatory compliance issues with an emphasis on antitrust law. He joined the firm in 2001 and became a partner in 2009. With a focus on China-related work, Bush was based in the firm’s Beijing office between 2004 and 2012, at which time he started to split his time between the Chinese capital and Singapore.

In late 2015, Bush became the only partner who is primarily based in the Singapore office—after capital markets partner Andrew Hutton decided to relocate to Hong Kong to be closer to clients. Before that, in early 2014, Bush changed his primary residence from Beijing to Singapore, where the firm would lose more than a dozen senior lawyers in the following two years.
