The legal arm of Big Four accounting firm PricewaterhouseCoopers has expanded its reach into Hong Kong through an association with Tiang & Co, a local firm set up by former King & Wood Mallesons partner David Tiang.

Tiang & Co. is officially in association with the Singapore office of PwC Legal, the Big Four firm’s first foray into the Asia-Pacific region, which opened in December. The Hong Kong association will focus on transactions and projects in Hong Kong, across Asia and globally, according to its website.

Aside from his stint at KWM, David Tiang was also general counsel at Walmart and General Electric, according to his LinkedIn profile.

PwC Legal opened its Singapore office after hiring partners Natalie Breen and Keith McGuire from Norton Rose Fulbright and Ashurst, respectively. The office will focus on cross-border regional transactions and projects.
