Tony Yeo, Kelvin Tan, Gary Low, and Meryl Koh have co-authored the Singapore chapter of the Chambers Global Practice Guides: Defamation & Reputation Management 2026.

The chapter provides a comprehensive overview of the legal framework governing privacy, defamation, harassment, and data protection in Singapore. It examines the key causes of action, remedies, procedural considerations, and regulatory developments relevant to businesses, organisations and individuals managing reputational risks.

In the accompanying Trends & Developments section, the authors explore issues shaping the modern reputation management landscape, including the growth of online and social media defamation, cross-border jurisdictional challenges arising from digital communications, and the increasing role of artificial intelligence in the creation and dissemination of content. The chapter also considers emerging legal issues relating to AI-generated defamatory statements and deepfakes.
