Yeoh, who has over 20 years of legal experience, was managing director of Sabara Law. He focuses on private client, tax, financial regulation, corporate law, and compliance for clients.

Koh specialises in succession planning for family businesses, family governance and family office set-up, advising on tax, legal and governance matters.
