Hong Kong law firm Howse Williams has hired regulatory and compliance lawyer Jason Chan as a partner from Dechert, where he was a senior associate.

Chan’s arrival comes shortly after financial services regulatory specialist Jill Wong left Howse Williams to join Reed Smith last July.

With nearly a decade of experience, Chan advises on regulatory and compliance of investment funds and virtual assets as well as non-contentious financial regulatory work.

Prior to joining Dechert, Chan worked at Sidley Austin and Clifford Chance.

Howse Williams now has three regulatory and compliance partners.
