Client strategy sits at the heart of all strategy. Without the ability to attract and retain clients, at a price which delivers an acceptable level of profitability, no business can be viable in the longer term. A firm's client strategy should be under constant review in order to ensure that the emerging needs of the client and the firm's competitive capabilities remain aligned. In a market that is undergoing fundamental and far reaching change, this requirement has never been more pressing.
Client Strategy in a Changing Legal Market provides a route map for the leadership team, enabling them to navigate these choppy economic waters and arrive at strategies which are well founded and resilient.
A unique opportunity to hear from senior private client lawyers on critical issues affecting their firms and the private client legal profession in front of a key selected audience. Following the discussion, the audience will be invited to participate in a short question and answer session.
Effective asset planning and protection in a new regulatory era
Legal Week is pleased to present the third annual Private Client Forum Asia 2012 which will take place at Goodwood Park Hotel in Singapore on Thursday 13 September.
The forum will unite leading private client lawyers from across the region and beyond to debate the challenges associated with providing Asia-Pacific's high net worth clients with first class legal advice and representation. This will be in the form of high-level discussions and debates with the opportunity for like-minded professionals to network.
Topics to be discussed include:
* Enhancing competitiveness in Asia's evolving wealth landscape
* Wealth management for China and India's riches
* Effective strategies for asset protection
* Enroaching US regulations: FATCA
* What next for the rapidly expanding wealth management industry in Asia?
The timing of this year's Private Client Forum will mark a checkpoint at which to assess and discuss key developments around the globe and the effects they are having on wealth for international private clients. The programme will offer cutting edge, multi-layered approaches to wealth to help guide advisors and their clients through times of both political and economic turbulence. How do you protect and enhance wealth at a time of unforeseen risk and how do we plan for the long term when jurisdictions are dealing with sudden radical and revolutionary change? Either way, we hope you arrive ready equipped with questions and experiences to share making this the most thought-provoking and challenging forum yet. Networking is also a key feature of this conference, which takes place over three days at the famous Villa d’Este hotel on the shores of Lake Como.

The British Legal Awards celebrate achievement, excellence and innovation in the legal industry. The Awards are hosted by Legal Week, the weekly magazine dedicated exclusively to business lawyers in the UK and major international jurisdictions. As UK law firms gear up for the full implementation of the Legal Services Act against the background of ever fiercer competition, the need to stand out from the pack could not be more pressing. The British Legal Awards will set out to recognise the achievements of those law firms, teams and individuals who have responded most successfully to the demands being placed on them in the new post-recession business environment. The awards are divided into individual, team and firm categories and have been carefully chosen to reflect the range of practice areas and skills that lie at the heart of the successful law firm or legal department. The shortlist and winners will be chosen by an independent panel of judges made up of senior in-house lawyers, former managing and senior partners and other senior business figures. The judges meet in person to deliberate and the decisions of the panel are final. Event enquiries and table bookings: Call Steve Hands on +44 (0)20 7004 7460 or email britishlegalawards@legalweek.com ENTRY DEADLINE: 31 AUGUST 2012
