UK law firm Mishcon de Reya has hired aviation specialist Ethan Tan in Singapore as partner and head of its Asia aviation practice from Reed Smith, where he was a counsel.

Tan has expertise in aviation finance, operating leases, finance leases, commercial lending, ECA-backed lending, OEM purchase orders, aircraft secured bonds, ABSs, hedging, asset-driven M&A, aviation JVs, MRO contracts, restructuring, enforcement and repossession, private jets, aircraft trading, and commercial disputes. His clients include airlines, lessors, banks and investors.

This is Mishcon’s tenth partner-level hire globally this year. In January, the firm’s Hong Kong office welcomed former Howse Williams partner Kevin So, who joined with a team of five.

With Tan’s addition, Mishcon, which established its Singapore office in 2020, now has five partners in the city-state.
