International offshore law firm Conyers Dill & Pearman has hired Craig Fulton as the head of its Mauritius office. Fulton will focus on generating business in the burgeoning markets of India and southern Africa as Conyers continues its major business development push in these regions.
Fulton’s appointment follows the formal launch of Conyers’ Mauritius office in June, a result of recent amendments to Mauritius law which allow foreign law firms to be established there. In July, Conyers bolstered its Mauritian expertise in London with the addition of Devalingum Gopalla, who specializes in investment funds. The firm also has a dedicated team of Mauritius lawyers in Dubai and Mauritius-qualified lawyers in Singapore and Hong Kong. In addition to Mauritius, Conyers advises on other offshore jurisdictions such as the Cayman Islands, British Virgin Islands and Bermuda.
Fulton relocated to Mauritius from Conyers’ Bermuda office, having worked for several years prior to that in the firm’s Cayman Islands office. Before joining Conyers, he was head of legal affairs (western hemisphere) for Fortis Bank and Fortis Prime Fund Solutions in the Cayman Islands.
