Notwithstanding this departure, as well as the general increase, over the years, in the number of cases in Singapore where veil piercing has been argued, the English approach has yet to be considered definitively by Singapore’s Court of Appeal. The other Singapore courts have thus generally also been unwilling and unable to decide on the applicability of the English approach in Singapore. Against this context, this article aims to consolidate and analyse the law on veil piercing in Singapore and England, before making suggestions on the approach which the Singapore courts should adopt moving forward. 2024-06-01T07:00:00Z text application/pdf https://ink.library.smu.edu.sg/sljlexicon/35 https://ink.library.smu.edu.sg/context/sljlexicon/article/1039/viewcontent/veil.pdf http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ Singapore Law Journal (Lexicon) eng Institutional Knowledge at Singapore Management University Asian Studies Courts |

Since 2013, the English courts have departed from the Singapore courts in their approach towards the doctrine of veil piercing. Notwithstanding this departure, as well as the general increase, over the years, in the number of cases in Singapore where veil piercing has been argued, the English approach has yet to be considered definitively by Singapore’s Court of Appeal. The other Singapore courts have thus generally also been unwilling and unable to decide on the applicability of the English approach in Singapore. Against this context, this article aims to consolidate and analyse the law on veil piercing in Singapore and England, before making suggestions on the approach which the Singapore courts should adopt moving forward. |
